1) Track opens at 7 AM Friday and Saturday.
2) Track closes at 6:30 PM Friday and Saturday.
3) There is no camping overnight.
4) It may be snowing. It may be freezing. It may be 60s and sunny. Who knows.
5) The restaurant may not be open. I'm awaiting an answer from the track.

Thanks for the info Andrew.
Can one stage/drop the cars the day before? If so what time does the gate opens?

Thanks Andrew,
Any idea if we can drop trailers off on Thursday evening?

We cannot drop trailers off Thursday Evening. We'll all be waiting in line Friday morning.

It is so much easier to just show up with my helmet and sleaze a ride.

Raj utilizes this modus operandi too!

LRP HINT
Avoid the main area and after going down the hill take a left to the Skippy section. You will note to your left is a soda machine and small fenced in area. Past that are two concrete pads in the grass. Choose the first one closest to the soda machine.

Advantages:
Relatively level pad for corner weighing.
Electricity hookup
Free wireless internet (choose #5 i believe).

Have a great time guys, wish i could be there though wife and i will be in Hawaii at a private area enjoying.... (edited due to PG site rating).

Rememeber: the track is bumpy as heck, adjust suspension accordingly.

I believe our contract is only for the South paddock area down by the timing tower / store area.

Oops, sorry and did not know that. In the SNL words of Rosanne Adan-Adanna... "Nevemind."

You will learn how to say Ka'a = car which is - acording to Frank P - not the same as Kah ( as in Bostonian "car").

Enjoy!
Mahalo for the LRP tips.
Mai Tai for you!

I just ran LRP yesterday.

The nice thing, this time of year is that you get to run 4 different tracks in your 4 sessions. Or 8 or 12 for instructors. Lots of incidents with SCDA yesterday. It's obviously near end of season....or as seen on the track.....spin the bearings time.

I was there as well, lots of carnage in the AM. The afternoon sessions seemed to be much quieter. The track seemed to warm up nicely as well. Weather was nice (for early Nov anyway).
