I been looking ... it's 160 miles from my place and 2.5 hours of drive. My spleen is weak just looking at the map. HOD is still pricey even for Reno-Ferney that's what kept me away from their events. I will pass this time ... maybe give it a try if NCRC or trackmaster host an event there in the future

Meaning you are coming? ![evilgrin](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/evilgrin.gif)
Additional data point: Test N Tune days there are $225. Approx same amount of track time. So costs can vary.
BTW, here is the link to their new website http://www.renofernleyracetrack.com/

Can we petition HOD to run "config 1" the "Course A. Full Course" ? It seems like the more interesting and challenging arrangement.

Here's the idea, but the red lines indicate potential trouble (as was the case at Thunderhill on more than one occasion, a car going off track could end up revisiting the track at another turn after a cross-country excursion) and I'm curious about speeds at each of the yellow points ... this course could eat brake pads.

Entry to straight is approx 65mph, end of straight into braking for essesses will be around 130/140mph (145mph if you have talent and massive gonads). In my Spyder it is 125-130mph easy. Essesses themselves are ~100mph entry to 115mph to hairpin. That is a very fast section of track.
All GT3 approximated times!
The beautiful thing about RF is it lacks a "killer" turn into the main straight (like Thunderhill's toxic T15). RF pit wall is wayyyyy the heck down the straight. In fact, the last turn's apex is "imaginary" in the middle of the road of the main straight. Freaky!
Too bad the aerials cannot capture the topography. A few blind turns that will give newbies a Code Brown

(I'm only about 1hr from the track if I don't have to pack up and tow away.)

Big thumbs up for this track, glad to hear thing are better, track was getting pretty rough when I was there, sounds like new management has spent some money repaving portions of the track.
Can't make it to R/F this weekend, the Crazy Canucks are off to Miller Motorsport Park for a 3 day PCA HDPE & PCA racing. should be about 8 of us from Alberta & BC.
