So the behind-the-wheel options:
-MM only open Autox at Verona
-Piggyback on NASA weekend
-Rallycross/dirtbikes at Chan's
-Karting
-Rent small track (probably cost prohibitive)
The only ones might be too tough are renting a track and offroad hooning at Chan's. The former because it is probably too expensive and the latter because someone might end up on their roof in the woods and we don't own a backhoe.
Track Rental
With renting a track something VIR-Patriot or Summit-JC would be the cheapest possible, and both of those are probably about $15-20k a day, especially on the weekend.
Maybe what we could do is have our own track sessions within someone else's weekend. So there'd be an HPDE MM group where we all get to be on track at the same time, then we'd all have downtime at the same time. Major issue with this would be different skill levels on track at same time.
Another thing we could do is just have a JMU area reunion weekend, and a designated track weekend for everyone to come to, grill out, party, etc. That way we don't have to try to be all things to all people (and so I'll have an excuse to rent a Radical).
