2010 Track Sessions

[Joel@RiegelTuning]

I am in the process of setting up a few track nights for the upcoming summer at Race City Speedway. It will most likely be open lapping sessions, but I can get some instructors booked depending on interest.

I want to get a feel for how many people may be interested, and the more people, the lower the cost per person.

This is not a 100% go ahead yet, as the status of race city is still not determined, but I want to get a feel for how much interest is out there. Remember this may be one of our last chances to get on the track in this city for a while.

If interested, please email me at joel@riegeltuning.com, or reply to this thread.

Thanks!

Re: 2010 Track Sessions

I would be interested.. but if the price is right. Some places hold a track event to make money.. and others to it for fun. Last year I went on one organized by a member of beyond and I believe it was 180 for the full day... certainly better then Speedtech being $275 (iirc) and more for other shops.

Re: 2010 Track Sessions

Pricing all depends on amount of attendees and what is included. We choose to have "less" people on the track and more track time then have 50+ cars show up and some people only make it out once. We also provide food/refreshments and some instructors so ours may be a little higher than an event where you just show up and hit the track. Most, if not all, track days are not organized to make money but to enjoy the sport we all support!

Since you brought it up.. The Tunerworks one is the one I referred to being the more expensive one. It was 1.5 days for $500 if I recall correctly. It was the same amount of cars (if not more) then the $180 one I went to, and besides offering a $5.00 lunch and a quick beginners speech it was the exact same. (I will say the 180 one asked for people with experience to avoid the begginers speech) While I appreciate shops doing this, paying 180->275->500 is a huge difference. Most of the owners in the TW probably wouldnt flinch at a $320 difference.. but for others thats a significant amount.

Anyways Joel, that should give a decent overview of prices that are currently being charged.. (granted the rent doesnt skyrocket this year)

I'd be interested, went once with beyond when I got the Jetta. Only about 20 cars and was a blast.

Re: 2010 Track Sessions

I'm in, but pls no instuctors as this will raise the cost. Have done this alot and it always works best when 20-25 cars are the maximum cars allowed. Especially when all are experienced trackers. Not a fan of the refreshments either. People can pack there own cooler for that kind of stuff. But count me in for sure regardless of how this is planned. Its been too long since my last event and I need to get it out of my system.... LOL
