Perhaps we can convince someone that each person gets 2 laps full speed with an instructor and by themselves on the race track after the paced laps are finished.
If none of that, then I'll just have to be happy with what I get and just come back to The Ridge for a normal car club's HPDE.  |

Let's leave driving 9/10 to a dedicated HPDE event.
