Just spectating? If you are going to drive the 3+ hours down there you might as well get credit for it. Cars are on track by 8am! Everyone that is going will be there way before you, I doubt anyone is leaving between the time you specified...sorry :roll:

HPDE is ~300/weekend, and there is an autox on the patriot course as well although i'm not sure on the cost - quite a bit cheaper than 300 though.

Autox on Patriot is $65 for Sat but over full with wait list.

Drifting is $90 for Sat, $150 for Sun or $220 for both... and there are still spots left both days.

Est 450 cars attending between fullcourse and patriot course activities.

god damnit, is anyone else as anxious as i am? i cant fucking wait!!!!!

oh yeah, since i've got the miata now, packing stuff in is much more difficult than the hatchback. i hate to do this, but the appearance of big blue will now be rare at the track. if anyone else has a cooler and has room to bring it, that would be exceptional.

i'm getting really excited as well. The SE-R is pretty much ready to run, just a little bits here and there to finish up. This car has tons of room, but I'm not sure how I can get it from ya.

Lindsey just found out that she has a job fair on Saturday, so she won't be able to join us for this track weekend. Therefore, I might be leaving on Friday night. When is everybody leaving and where from? It might be nice to be able to intercept you guys on the way down and caravan.
