Anyone planning on attending the FATT at SRP in July or August? It’s whole lot of fun! Some of you might not recognize the place, the new track manager had the petting zoo removed and is starting to remove the junk yard too

I was at PR on Saturday for the Vintage Races. I was surprised to see how much elevation change the track was subject to. Turn 1 and turn 2 are going to be rough on the brakes.... can't wait.

I'm extremely excited for this track event. Time to turn those RA1's into slicks.

Thanks again, Ralph, for organizing this.

I would love to make it out, but i would definatly be a Novice; and i definatly don't have $250.

I could scrounge up the $125 though.

Is there anyway you guys can think of me being able to make it out? It sounds like if i do show, i'll be warmin the bench for ya guys.

It sounds to me like the "ground school" is going to be basic track information, rules, etc. Almost the same as a driver's meeting for autocross.

The issue is not whether you can attend just the lapping session. I think it's an issue of finding an open spot. I don't know how many positions are still open for this session. I would give them a call.

Oh i didn't realize it was so full; i didn't read this thread until today for some stupid reason. Probably because everytime i saw the thread title i subconciously begged myself not to read the thread because i knew i don't have the money for it, but would do it anyway.

I'm alright though, I'll make it out next time for sure .

The hardest braking zone is typically going into 3A from the downhill section, really have to watch your pad life on this track. I also finally sent in my registration...I was debating not going since I won't have everything quite done but too hard to pass up.

If they stick to the planned schedule, 1-3pm is your best bet to catch both novices and the advanced lappers on the track. Thanks for offering to take footage BTW!

Sorry guys, turns out I can't make it. I just bought a motorcycle to replace my second car I just sold and decided to take a weekend getaway. Next time, I'm there. Believe me.
