How many run groups in the evening session?

Any tech requirements? I have a barely worn (2008) helmet that I could bring, or a newer flipup (2016 manufacturer date). If helmets are mandatory, I'd prefer the older helment due to headroom in my Boxster....

Is there a slow group? My best sessions are 89-91 seconds...

Do you get commission? Should I say John Elliott sent me? (LOL)

No commission, but thanks. I just appreciate having a Track so close to home, so I want to help make it successful for years to come so I have a place to run.

The Bend offers three run groups - Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.

safe tires and safe brakes, Helmet is required.

There is a Driver’s Meeting at 5, there are Track Marshals and an EMS.

Hope me to see you there, if you have questions at the Track I will try to help.

Weather forecast for Thursday night looks good...

I'm thinking about going... Need a link / phone # for signup, or can we pay at the gate? Not sure if I can get there too much before 5pm...

It appears that we may get our first opportunity of 2018 to run on a Wet Track tomorrow Thursday July 5th Evening. Should be Fun.

i am undecided currently if I am going out if its wet.... (I have my helmet in the trunk) I guess I save $20 if i can decide by noon.... My street tires (Kumho PS31's) should have decent water evacuation.

We do need the rain, but I was hoping it would go through grand bend between noon and 3pm ....

My work is about 1hr away from the GB track....

My current plan is to be there - in the wet, all the interesting stuff happens at lower speeds!
