Track Daze VIR Full [August 30-31]

[Nis01]

To everyone that has participated in one of our track events under the CAC NorEast R32 group, we would like to thank you for making those events so successful and let you know we've changed our name and started a new organization. If you haven't been to one of ours yet...

Check out the site for pics and coverage of our previous events!

Cost: $350

Track Daze events include:
4 sessions per day
Lunch Each day provided
A Free Event T-shirt

With the formation of TrackDaze you can be sure to expect the same high quality, fun, and exciting event as we put on under the CAC-NorEast R32 banner...We have tried to take the best of all of our experiences at track events and put them all together in what we hope will continue to be a great HPDE program.

Of course with a new name comes a new face: Track Daze High-Performance Driving

I would also like to announce that our August 2007 VIR full course HPDE registration is now open on the new website.

There are now 3 convenient ways to pay registration fees: paypal, google-checkout, and mail-in check.

Please go here to register: trackdaze.com

Anybody planning on making this event?

I was until I realized it was on a Thursday/Friday. I think I'm going to do the Mazdadrivers instead. It's the Sat/Sun immediately after.

Hadn't even looked at that... :?

[Maengelito]

i signed up to instruct awhile ago, but i cant do the mazdadrivers event because i'm goin to jenn's friend's wedding

[white_2kgt]

I think they have closed registration for this now (at least for beginner). I got an email saying they were looking for more instructhos so they could get more students.

[Nis01]

Just registered for this event. The crackpipe has hit hard.. :twisted:

Maeng looks like there are rooms at the lodge available, want to see if we can snag one?

[Maengelito]

are those the rooms near turn 17 above the garages? if so, hells yeah shea.

I believe the 'Lodge' Rooms are the 'hotel' and not the 'above garage' rooms. Last year they were charging the same rate for either the lodge room or above garage room (garage not included) (same kind of room though)

[Maengelito]

hmmm, anyone got the hotel number for the "above garage" rooms? all i see on their site is for the "lodge"

Sandy runs all of it so you call the same number. Are you going to this Maeng? Why not the MazdaDrivers that weekend. Trackdays on Sat/Sun>Thursday/Friday.

[Maengelito]

shea, i reserved a room in the trackside suites for wed and thurs night. they didnt have anything for above those garages but its the same rate for the suites. you wanna split it?

So you got a room in the lodge? I also called.. so it will be ~$95.00 a night there or $75.00 a night at the Sleep Inn in Danville. What would you prefer?

[navin]

Damn I'd love to do this event, i wish my car/life was together right now

i'm down with either. i like being close to the track so we can just roll out of the room and be right there, but i can also understand if you're on a tight budget. plus sleep inn is close to gas stations/grocery store in case we need some food or water or some stuff like that.

oh yeah, and the lodge is $85 for wed night and $95 for thurs night if that sways your opinion at all

[Nis01]

Honestly I will do whatever you prefer. I'm willing to pay the bit extra and will perhaps go out to town for gas at the end of the day despite where we are staying. The prices you were told are better than the ones they told me so we can stick with your room. :lol: I'm going to try and invest in a tent so we can have some extra shade in our paddock. I'll chat further about this when it gets closer but the lodge seems to be a wise choice. Hope I can get some of my new found parts installed in time for this one... my DS2500s now scare people coming to redlights. :?

[Nis01]

Maeng, what time do you plan on getting down there on Wednesday? I'm hoping to arrive around 6:00 as it stand right now.

[Maengelito]

i work until 5 and i've got a ton of stuff to do before this event, so i will probably be there later at night. you can probably check in to the trackside suites for me

I might not rush down there then.. I'm going to have a few things I want to prep on the car when I get there so I was hoping to have some light left. I'll probably just end up setting up paddock and hanging out. Want me to save you a spot where I set up? It shouldn't be too packed since there won't be all the race guys there.

[Maengelito]

yeah, save me a spot... although last time we did a trackdaze (aka R32 club) event, the paddock wasnt full by any means, VIR's paddock is bigger and its a thurs/friday event.

[Nis01]

Final prep work tonight and than off to the track after work tomorrow to hopefully get done with registration on Wed. night instead of early on Thurs. Maeng do I have your cell phone number? Mine is 804-306-4592. I'll see you down there.
