Mr. Al,

Why do you always choose to have the events on weekdays? I would like to attend but I have school/work on most weekdays... :/

thx247 10-07-2003 12:22 AM

events on weekends are usually book well in advance, and are much more expensive.

nokeone 10-07-2003 01:55 AM

yeah..pretty much all about cost and availability..

i'll be there again for sure!!!

see you all soon..:D

TRUENOCOUPE 10-07-2003 12:38 PM

Why not weekends?

The cost on wekeend is $2200.

On my insurance I can only have 12-15 People at the track.

So that would put each driver on $150 for a track day.

Not just that...

On Weekend we gotta have Track/suspervisor @350 per day.
Janitorial [email protected]/weekend
Communication [email protected]/day/each
10 or 20lb fire extinguisher @10/day
Grease [email protected]/day
[email protected]/hourly
ALS [email protected]/Hour
Fire [email protected]/day
Tow [email protected]/Day

PLUS the TRACK RENT. Weekend is set up differently. I have no idea why.

This is why I choose to have the weekday events. Maybe when I renew my insurance next year I can get a better rate for weekends.

So each driver would go about $400 each!

If you don't mind... Ill put one up for a weekend. What do you say?

Just wondering but how many wheels do people bring because that is one long ass little event you have going there? I would love to go but I don't think I'll have the funds for this until december. I still have to buy a helmet and an extra set of wheels.

Al, the Dori King, on the other hand goes through a set, from what i've seen, by mid morning..lol..:p

TRUENOCOUPE 10-08-2003 09:43 AM

knghtryde 10-08-2003 10:01 AM

:bash: Hey Al, can there be more than one driver per car, and is it $120 per car or per driver. And do you need to have a helmet or anything. I have no clue what is required at one of these. Let me know. I definately wanna take a day off work.

TRUENOCOUPE 10-08-2003 10:40 AM

Its $120 per driver.

ALL DRIVERS are required to race with a helmet on. You will not be able to race without a helmet. Motorcycle helmet is fine.
