THIS!!!

Although we did look into the rental costs for a private track day last year and found the overall price to be far too high.

Depends on how it's set up. I organized a private track day 2 years ago for the west coast Mini Cooper convention and it ended up being $200 a car for the whole day on the track.

I'll look into it.

Garage
So there is always Track Day/Cruise. the trickiest part will be finding a location willing to house the event. Assuming we get 40-50 cars it shouldn't be too bad but more than that we should look into getting a private location set up. Also things to think about are sponsors, giveaways, etc I'm sure a lot of us have stuff we can throw in for raffles and giveaways but its always nice to have Vendors/Shops in on the festivities.

Well, I just talked to Brenda at ORP and the cost has gone up quite a bit since I rented the track.
Weed day event with insurance, Medics, and 5 corner workers, Open running all day with lunch break between noon and 1, $5900

Weekend would be $8400.

Yes, that's a lot of money
BUT
50 cars would be $168 a car on a weekend, something to think about anyway.
Organize a 2 day event with a starting points at Seattle, Portland, and Calif, on Friday or Sat, and have a track day on Sunday.
