I'd be game for both!
Let me know how I can help!
Need some feedback as to when we want to do this...on THE NEW TRACK!!!!!! Dec 10-11, 17-18, or wait until February, or both! I have no specifics at this time, but I suspect we will need corner workers as this course does not have the good visibility of the other. Insurance has gone up, again, and I don't know the rental cost, but I'm guessing we're looking at $220 for the weekend (5 sessions, 3 groups each day = $22/session - cheaper than member fees!). Being that this track is new to everyone, we will have a short classrom session to get the layout and talk about turn-in, apex, and track-out and anything else we've learned, then a lead-n-follow.
We walked it at 11PM last night, with two-thirds (26' wide) of the base coat down, and it is AWESOME! I can't wait......

I doubt my car would be ready for Dec... so I vote Feb...
However, I'd be game for working corner in December.

Lightness? What's that? I drive a PRHT!
I'm game for whatever you choose. The weather's just as likely to be good (or bad ) in December as February...

I dare say the weather would be nicer in December than in February.
In other words, yes, I'd love to go!
Definitely "in"terested. I'm with altiain on this one -- the weather is not a differentiating factor between those dates, so either is fine with me. The only problem for December dates are Christmas Parties. For starters, December 10th is the ER Christmas Party and Awards Banquet, and there will probably be others as well (office parties, MME Christmas Gathering, NTS2KOC Christmas Party, etc).
I don't get the comment about needing corner workers... there aren't any cones to chase out there now, are there?

No, but if there aren't good lines of sight, then there definitely need to be flaggers out there.Originally Posted by Kestrel
While I'd like to make the ER banquet, I'd miss it for a chance to run the new section of MSR. If we do it in December, I think the closer it is to Christmas, the more it will conflict with people's holiday plans.

Psssssttt... I was kidding about the cones...
My point about the ER Christmas Party was not to ponder if it is better to go there or to MSR, but to use it is an example of why the December dates might be potentially less attractive than the February dates. In any event, if I can go to MSR, I'll be there! It's a TON of fun!!!

Hate to say it, but xmas is going to be an issue for everyone whether they admit it or not.
I'll work a corner (at the track that is)

It's one day in December, either you can make it or you can't!
I'm happy to say I'm willing to participate in December for an opportunity to run on the new track at MSR!

Dang you are correct sir, I did forget one of majors. I apologize profusely!Originally Posted by Titus
OK so back on track who wants to go to MSR!
I would love either time. Merv like POS said, if you need any help with anything let me know.
Sign me up Merv ... let's see if the Checkmobile is still track worthy!
If you are not living on the edge ...
you're taking up too much space!
I love to come to both. The sooner we have the date nail down the sooner I can confirm. I have to make sure I do not have to work the weekend. It looks like Dec 10-11 is better than 17-18.

Just so you know, Track 2 is completely setup for Miatas. Tight turns, narrow roadway - It should be a complete blast.
