I usually don't do track days on Sundays (gotta go to church ) but I'm seriously tempted on this one.
Is there a expiration date on the discount code?

Not that I'm aware of.

And....it can be spiritual - I'm sure if you miscalculate a turn, you can experience that whole life flashing in front of you thing.

I'm posting this here, and on Camarofest's facebook page...so we should get a decent turnout of cars.

Wow that does look fun.... and it's only about a 3 hour drive for me... I may be down for this Mr. Wyndham! And I can think of another person on here (RXtacy) that will probably be down as well.

No, Intermediate for now - I've never been there. But if I "graduate", after the first couple of laps...I'm sure I can convince someone to bump me up...and then I'd be happy to give you a ride!

I've run NASCARs there. Very fun and very tricky at the same time My wife bought me another round for this summer. You guys will have a blast. My neighbor had his 07 Z06 up to 168mph and he's 76 years old.

Sounds good! If I go I will sign up for intermediate as well, only have a few track days under my belt but at both they quickly pulled me out of Novice and into intermediate due to my pace lol I think I will stick with intermediate for most if not all of my events this year. It will be interesting to see how much quicker you are haha

Pocono was on my “go to” list this year anyways. Looks like the perfect opportunity to check it off!! Thanks for the heads up. Now if I can secure Monday off of work I’m signing up( or just develop some strange 24hr virus on Monday). Either way I hope to see some of y’all out there.

I have 5/26 Grattan with 3 balls, and I was thinking about open track at Grattan (with VR group you've been to) on 5/18.
If I do all 3 events, I may have to move into your warehouse for a few days.
But that track looks fun.....

Awesome! I think that makes 5-6 of us in the first day this was available! LOL...it'll be fun, we'll have to all roll in together for effect.

I’m trying to find the track day itinerary and can’t seem to find any details. Any idea of how much track time we get, or how many sessions there will be? How long the breaks are between sessions to analyze previous run? Or even what time the event is supposed to run till? Maybe it’s clearly on the site and I’m just overlooking it. Thanks.
