I believe Atco is around $1500 for a maximum of 12 race cars. The rental is for a weekday from 9am to 4pm. You would have to call the office to find out details and exact cost though.

If you're testing a new set up or just want some seat time it's a great deal. Get 10 friends together and charge $125/per person and you can hot lap all day long.

94 CAMM: Let me know if you decide to do a track rental day at ATCO. I would be willing to go in with 10-12 people. I did this a few times and the cost was around $100 per person. A track person sat in the tower and ran the tree and you had to stop and pick up the timeslip at the bottom of the tower. Basically unlimited runs. Note there was no tech-in required. As Jax stated this is great for getting some seat time and testing new things.

At NYIRP they prep the first 60' on rental days. If you want more of the track prepped they charge just for the cost of the VHT used, not too expensive (couple hundred total to prep to 1/2 track). That ATCO price is ridiculous.

-Not "at least" 32 runs per car - "approximately" 32 runs per car (4 runs per hour max)
-Car # is limited because staff is limited.
-The track is already prepped - the extra money is for additional prep.
-You sign a waiver when you race on a t&t night also.
-You must pass tech inspection on a t&t night also.

I have been to 2 rentals at Atco. The price is high because people pay it.

What fast cars make 4 runs/h? Must be a bunch of near stockers being flogged.
