| *UPDATED MAY 26TH*Well once again folks it is about that time to start getting things up and running for the 2014 season. Things are going to be pretty much the same as last year minus a few small changes we my try and implement on the final race weekend of the year. The track days are as follows: - May 24-25 (Memorial Day weekend) *COMPLETE* - July 4-5 (Independence Day weekend) - Aug 30-31 (Labor Day weekend) Yeah I know, we scheduled the same weekends and most of the time people have a bunch of family stuff to do as they are holiday weekends, but the best part is most of the time people will have a 3 day weekend making it easier for travel. Pricing for the July 5th-6th event are: =========================================== $60 per driver for the weekend (paid before June 15th) $35 per driver for a single day (paid before June 15th) $75 per driver for the weekend (paid day of event) $50 per driver for a single day (paid day of event) =========================================== There are 3 ways payment can be made... You can either meet me in person, send it VIA MAIL, or Paypal. If you are going to be sending VIA Paypal add $1.00 per day. An example would be if you are going to be there one day add $1. If you are going to be there the whole weekend add $2. If you and a group are coming and are paying as a whole add all the names of the people participating in the comments section and add $1 per person per day. Easy as pie. My address is Michael Card, BOX 127, Shepherd MT 59079 My Paypal is doodiehd@hotmail.comIf you are paying in advance there is absolutely NO REFUNDS if you cannot make the event. If you are not sure wait till we get closer to the date. I am going to start an attendance list and make it a sticky so we can keep track of the group going. We will be capping the event if it comes down to it, but as of right now it is open to everyone. We want to try and keep the attendance low enough to allow for maximum amount of track time, run groups are not an option. As most of you know there is track size camping and also running water with bathrooms and showers. Awesome facility. Electricity is also available in the conference room. Thanks everyone!!!

| Camping is only Friday and Saturday. Sunday everyone leaves when we are done (around 3 or 4 usually) and we lock the gate. | |

| Glad to hear it A Dog. Perhaps I will bring the GS400 along again. I added a LSD, and the coil overs and bushings go on next week. Drifting should be one-handed! | |

| It would be fun to have a water truck come out and wet the track for an hour or so. Slip and sliding.
Less than a month until track time!! I'm excited to tow my nissan for the first time to an event. | |

| Based on what we were told last year by the facility coordinator, that would not be an option. They do not like the idea of people intentionally sliding. | |

| Yes, the 406 Drift Crew got shut down last year as they wanted to use the track for drifting purposes.

| What time is drivers meeting on Sat and what times is the track live each day?
(You did say Sunday was until around 3 or 4pm)
I'm just figuring out my travel schedule, so thank you for your information! | |

| Not real sure that time we will start on Saturday, but I know Sunday we will be up at Dawn tearing it up. I would guess some time around 9am on Saturday at the latest. As far as a driver meeting, I will be going around having people sign a waiver as usual and going over the basics of the course. Not much to it. | |

| I highly recommend people doing a check on their track day vehicles this weekend. Don't want to have those avoidable mishaps at the tracks (I know, we all have them, but we need to try).
One week left!! | |

| I have the shirts and hoodies. No one signed up to buy any, but I thought people would want them if I didnt have them made, so here are the sizes I had made.
[Shirts]
Black - 1 Small, 1 Large and 2 XL Green - 1 Large Pink - 1 Medium Blue - 2 Large, 2 XL Light Grey - 1 Medium, 1 XL Dark Grey - 1 XL Red - 2 Large, 2 XL White - 1 Medium
[Hoodies]
Black - 5XL
Shirts will be $15 and Hoodies will be $30. Got them a bit cheaper as he was putting them off for a few months. | |

| Great track days this weekend. Really glad we had a good turnout for the first event of the year.
Next event will be July 4th weekend. Taking advance payment now.
$60 for the weekend and $35 for a single day. After June 15th prices will be $75 for one day and $50 for the weekend again. There will be no multiple driver single car discounts anymore, price is per driver.
Our next event is going to be a much tighter course, so for all of you that were pulling drifts, this next event is going to be much different, more autox style.
Dont want to have people whining, you know in advance.
If one does not meet the June 15th deadline, DO NOT SEND MONEY OR PAYPAL, JUST BRING YOUR FEE TO THE TRACK THE DAY OF THE EVENT.
There were also a bunch of people that showed up late to the last event and I highly recommend showing up early to sign the waiver and pay. If I am away from the track or on the track you will have to wait until I return to get set up.
Also, shirts are all gone. | |

| It is on! Similar layout as usual. Last time we changed up the back section and tried different routes and it was fun. It made for some very tight 90-degree turns. | |

| There will be no early bird specials this time. We came up about 150 short on the last event, so we will be doing $50 and $75 for everyone. No advance payment, pay the day of. | |

| Changed my mind on the early bird special. You have until next Friday (the 15th) to get your money in VIA Paypal or Mail. $35 for 1 Day and $60 for the Weekend.
