Default Gainesville Raceway Test & Tune needs drivers.

Don't let this series die, please go.
Only $40, no coursework, no cones, pretty much unlimited runs.

SO COME ON OUT!!

One Session
10 AM to 4 PM
Course change at mid-day

and this is when? a date would help..
IS this the Feb 10th event? Because the problem is there is a Big Euro car Time Distance Rally that day.

I think for this event to be successful, they need to get buy in from other clubs so there are no conflits with schedules.

Well if I were to run the event I say that the price will vary $40 to $50.. if there are less than 50 cars its $50 each.. to help offset the lack of cars. Its still not a bad deal since the lower car number means more driving . Since the rest of the events are 2 weeks before the BMWCCA events I will definatly try to start coming out to them. Plus i will mention this at the BMW meetings.

No timing equipment. A lot of people bring a friend with a stop watch.

I am pretty sure you just show up and pay the day of the event.
