RichS · 09-16-2008, 07:27 AM

If you plan to attend LOG29, we have a few questions about adding an extra track day:

Question 1 - I am interested in an extra track day
Question 1 - I am NOT interested in an extra track day

Question 2 - The most I would pay for an extra track day is $300
Question 2 - The most I would pay for an extra track day is $250
Question 2 - The most I would pay for an extra track day is $200

Question 3 – I would like to sponsor the track day

If you would like to be a sponsor for an extra track day, please feel free to either post your willingness to sponsor the event and an amount, or feel free to PM me if you don't feel like sharing that amount with everyone.

Im guessing the original track day is scheduled for monday>?

When would this extra track day be>?

Either way. one track day is enough for me. I still have to drive her home

This would be the day after and it's probably not going to happen. Getting people to pay what it would cost if they actually paid the cost (18K) or adding sponsorship (who are already tapped out because of the first track day) looks to be tough.

Right now the 4 people who said that they would do it would only add up to $1050. That's a LONG way from 18K.

That said, it's still a long way out. We might be able to do it. Or maybe we could go to a different track in the area, but I'd really have my heart set on doing another day at the same track.

Here's an idea: Get Barber to do a 'try before you buy' day on Tuesday.

Is this Lotus only? I have a race @ Barber (BMW Club Race) 11/15-11/16 and wouldn't mind getting some seat time in before the event. By the way, I am quick to give point by's.

We had a two day track day at LOG 26 in Texas and it went very well. Offering the two day event actually helped to bring money to the overall event. As it stands it was the only LOG to make a profit.

To answer your question, yes I would stick around for a two day-er, if work allows.
An additional 200 to 250 is not to bad.

That makes 5.

Sorry Al, definitely not true. LOG 27 made a respectable profit. I was LLtd treasurer at the time, so I didn't have to dream this up.
