Track Meet

[Johnny P]

Im thinking about doing a track meet sometime this summer, who would be interested in doing a road race @ PMP. Im checking to see how much it would cost for our group. Just gauging interest at this point.

If you get enough to do a date...I would go to watch. (to nervous a driver to put it on the track.)

[tred]

[midshipdrifter]

I could do it with enough notice to take off of work (2-3 weeks). I'd bring my Civic.

^^HSUN, you bring mr2! it fast and very enjoyable!

also it looked really really good yesterday at work :)

[Johnny P]

Yea you can bring your civic or what ever you want, a friend of mine will be there in his WRX wagon. Because he thinks he can beat me. Ha Ill show him. And when he loses Ill be sad for him :fiddle:

[Johnny P]

It won't be for atleast three weeks, but ill call tomorrow and let you guys know what day were doing it.

[MR2Fast]

Let us know.

Tell you what man, for a certain amount of cash, you can park in YOUR parking lot at work . . . :wavey:

[Johnny P]

Ok I talked to the track and prices are as follows:
1 driver/1 car = $100
this is driving with other drivers on the track for a full day.
If we wanted to have the whole track to ourselves we would need 10 drivers min.
10 drivers/10 cars = $1000

Friday, Saturday, Sunday are taken up until November, so probably Monday or Tuesday. Lets try and get 10 people in, this is going to be fun.

Ill start a list of everyone that is going, and if your going Ill need some money so I can reserve the track.

Edited:
How would everyone feel about this on Independence Day? It is open, but we are competing with another group so if we want that day Ill need to reserve it soon. So everybody that is in for this Ill need a little down payment. And whats nice about this is we own the track for the day, unlimited spectators and we could have a bar-b-q lunch. But as many people as possible let me know tonight if possible, we need 10 people that are commited to this.

[Johnny P]

Nobody else interested?

[tred]

i may be, i would also like to have my dad race as well in his porsche, kinda been wanting a race between him and i.... $100 sounds a bit high, but what the hell right :)

If I still have my MR2 I might go, put me as tentative.

You don't goto Italy for two weeks and the MotoGP at Mugello and NOT want a bike :rock:

[Johnny P]

Michaelmr2 are you racing or just watching?

Ok guys we need at least 1 or 2 more. And Ill need a down payment because I need to put down 50% to save the track.

This isn't that much guys we are buying the track for a full day, as many runs as you want, and we can have a bar-b-q. Who else is willing to commit?

I wouldnt count on me...my schedule is crap right now. Best case, is I would be a spectator...not going to race.

[Johnny P]

Ok so we need 2 more people to commit, anybody else?

[Johnny P]

I might be "barrowing" a black MKIII for the meet we could have a multi generational photo shoot.

[DR3AMR2]

I would be down for this only if i can get my turbo to work again.

[Johnny P]

Ok we need some deposits if we want to reserve the track, and if we don't get anymore people it'll end up being $125. Ive asked around to see if I can get anybody else, we might be able to get the price down if we can get more people.

So if I could go ahead and get $60 from the people that are coming then I can go ahead and make the reserveation before its gone. If we end up getting 10+ people then I would split up the overage collected.

[Jarod]

Have you opened offer this to other clubs as well? Might help reduce the price.

Edit:

Where and what is PMP?

[oldster]

Pueblo MotorSports Park

[Johnny P]

Thanks Oldster, and yes your right opening it up to other clubs would bring down the price. But that was a week or more ago and nobody wanted to commit, I don't know if this date is still open.

[Johnny P]

Well what I think were going to do is split it between us and another group of bikes that have been trying to get the track. So it'll be 30 mins bike, 30 mins cars, or something to that effect. So I hope I see some MR2s out there on the 4th,

Peace
Johnny

[Jarod]

Ooo neat, Ive been wanting a bike badly. This will make me want one even more now. July 4th? How much is a deposit?

[Johnny P]

No deposit just show up with $100 and your in.

[midshipdrifter]

Are helmets required?

[Johnny P]

Im 95% sure they are not required, but Ill have to check. And I don't have one so I hope they aren't.

EDIT
Yes a helmet will be required

[Jarod]

What about tech inspection? Are they going to be hard asses? Im 95% coming.

[midshipdrifter]

Ok, I have no helmet, and I can't afford to go out and buy one so.... I might not be able to show.

[Michaelmr2]

I have a helmet, it can be loaned out if I come.

[Jarod]

I doubt its still availible, but

[midshipdrifter]

Sorry guys, I'm not going to be able to go. I'm a little lacking in the money area as of right now. Could I show up to just watch for a while?
