PS - Are these events always pricey ($40)? Are there any weekly venues that are cheaper?

dude, you pay $40 for a reason....i've seen people easily get in 15 runs at one track event....if not many many more.....the longest you'll wait in the line is like 5 mins. it's so worth it if you want to run your car.

Those are good times. What kind of wheels/tires are you running on the back?

Also, did anybody get your mph for you? Especially with a traction-limited 1320 time, the mph would be the real indicator of what your car is capable of.

Brandenton does do weekly Test and Tunes for $15 dollars as well as Runday Sundays, etc. Check their website ( http://www.bradentonmotorsports.com/ ) for dates, as they aren't doing anymore until after the first of the year.

The difference with our track days and why they cost more is that they are a private event. Wen rent out the track and charge $30 dollars if you preregister and $40 if you show up at the gates. There are less people there, so that means much shorter lines if any at all, much better track prep and the chance to meet alot of people off the site.
