Thumbs up

I've done a few events with this group and they come highly recommended by me. Very well organized and professionally run.

I liked going on Gingerman cause except for one corner there is plenty of run off for mistakes. It's a great track for beginners to get a handle of. Instructors help out a ton as well.

Unfortunetly, I'll be running the weekend before at Road America so I won't be able to make it to the April 19th race. If I remember correctly they normally have more than one a year there so hopefully I can make it out later in the year.

I'm in a similar situation. I'll be at Mid-Ohio this weekend for a HPDE, and doing another track day within 2 weeks is a little much for the budget right now.

It looks like STUSA has another event there in October. I'll try to make that one. Last year in October I did a track day at Gingerman with the Alfa Romeo club and STUSA had the following day on the track. I wonder if it's arranged the same way this year.

Thank you for the kind words about our evens. We are hoping the consistent turn-out yeilds us the option of running events at more tracks in the Midwest.

Actually, we did not PLAN to run the day after the Alfa Club, it just happened to get scheduled that way. April seems like a very busy track month for everybody. Well, there is always the event in October.

Brian.

The folks at GingerMan informed me today that they are having an "open practice" session from 5:30-8:30 for $50. I will be there with some of my staff re-learning the track.

Maybe I'll see some of you there,
Brian.
