Well I just picked up a tent and sleeping bag, whos camping there?

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

Not me.

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

I plan on camping out there.

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

We will be camping. Probably near the end of the drag strip like usual

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

So do you have to pay an entrance fee and a fee to drag race?

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

yes both? or any other racing. it's all on maps proving grounds page. along with schedule class restrictions. helmut requirement may not be but u'll need a snell 2005 or newer. etc etc etc. I wanna say weekend pass is $35 per person and $25 for drag racing.

I'm probably going to head up saturday and be around for sunday events. Not sure what all I will be entering into yet.

Basically you pay your entrance fee at the gate, then once inside you go to the main showroom and buy wristbands for autoX, drag, etc...

Then go tech for your various events (this is at scheduled times) and then you basically just run your own schedule and bounce from event to event as needed, pay close attention to heat times or expected start times and listen to the PA's or over the radio (they broadcast locally).

Oh, and whenever you are not racing/preparing for racing, you are required by law to have an open beer in your hand and an unopened one in your off hand or in your pocket :) We have *a lot* of fun!

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

Well, my Talon is in about 130 different pieces right now, and it's going to stay that way for the foreseeable future.

Debating even going at all right now...

Hmm.

Come and drink with me!

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

Do it Paul!

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

Ha! I'm in, finally. I'll be camping as well, let me know where the crew is hanging out.

I plan on running mostly road course, maybe drag. I'll have to go look at the schedule and see what to sign up for. I can't believe I have a free weekend and this old POS runs pretty good at the same time.

The racetrack isn't typically a great spot to find quality pussy.

Re: 2013 Proving Grounds
 

Racing while drinking ? Shouldn't it be racing OR drinking?
:ring:

Seems legit.
