Thread: Track Day at Hallet? Sept 29th! Cheap :)

    Default Track Day at Hallet? Sept 29th! Cheap :)

    Alright, well my buddy and I are putting together a random track day at Hallett sept 29th. (ok, well he's doing most of the work... I'm just tagging along..) Yes, we know it's a weekday.. That's ok. It's a LOT cheaper this way... We'll have full acess to the track as it will just be whoever we show up with. Limit will be 5 cars on track at a time however ( 4 groups of 5. Should be an easy 5 sessions apeice)

    The cost will be ~$100 ($1200 total, divided by how many cars we get. Capped at 20)

    So far it'll be his C5 (pewter convertable you've seen run ASP at some local AutoX events) some Rx7s, (both old and newer) some miatas(?) and some S2ks.

    He's waiting to have officially signed the contract to setup the waiting list and start taking paypal, but that should be within a week.

    Anyone else interested in running? I'm in!

    other threads to keep an eye on.

    Except my friend is running in a Corvette, and I'll probably be in My Rx7...

    "Miata's at Hallett" doesn't do us much good....

    Moderator Moment - I split out the Miatas@Hallett into a separate thread in the Open Track section. (sammm)

    I know you want to promote your event, but I'd appreciate it if you didn't go into the full on advertisement of your event in a thread about a different event telling people to go there instead.. If people want to run one or that other, that's up to them...

    This event is for people just want more track time and don't have to spend half of the day in the classroom or dealing with other types of stuff. Track goes hot at I beleive 8am. Run as much as you want until they kick us out (5pm I think?)

    coolness... Maybe we can get a Miata/low power RWD run group?

    Hell, I don't care... I had a blast! I'm just debating which cars to run??

    no worries.....

    Update..

    True, it's only $1000 for the track, but it's also:

    $70/hr for an ambulance. (don't wreck- I'm not paying that)
    $30/hr for a wrecker (don't wreck)
    $65/day for corner workers * 8 corners
    $15/hr for the gate security guard (this mofo better come with free beer for that price)
    $5 per tire PER CAR for "track resurfacing fee". Ie, 20 cars * 4 tires * $5 = $400.

    So, based on a 20 car limit, this comes out to:
    $1000 + 65*8 + 15*11 + 5*4*20 = $2085
    Or a total of ~$104 per person.

    So, here's the deal: I must have $500 secured by the 15th for this to be a go. Which means I need 6 people (five others plus me) to submit their $104 deposits to me by that date.
    Payment can be arranged via papal ([email protected]) or via check (PM me for address). This payment is FULLY REFUNDABLE if 6 deposits are not obtained. Once the track deposit of $500 is paid, there are NO REFUNDS. I don't want to get stuck paying the tab if somebody flakes out.
    In the event that 20 cars are not signed up, I will need everyone to pay the difference made out to Hallett. We'll address this if/when it occurs.

    Keep in mind I'm posting on four different forums right now. I have 8 people who claim they are "solid". Ten people makes it $200 each. I find it hard to believe we can't score ten people.

    The official list will be here because I can actually EDIT that post.
