And, what are the requirements for being able to take the Instructor clinic on Friday?

Any advanced students with an interest in teaching. Attendance does not require that you then instruct at the event, though you can if you are so inclined.

Expect my entry in the second week of next month Dean. I'll probably run in the Intermediate group (4 previous track days) unless something compelling convinces me to forgo track time for excersises. And the entry fee doesn't include club membership right? What's that run, $35?

I will sign up on monday, I am in for sure.

Me too! Can't wait.

We are getting there. The front page now has had the out of date events removed, but no update on RFR yet... They alleged it would get done today... I am not holding my breath.

Still no update. I'm watching closely, please let us know when it comes up.

Don't get me started on this... Lets just say after my phone meeting with the motorsportreg.com folks this afternoon, we will have a registration page...

Sweet, I love squashing balls to get things done, good work.

Registration is now open!

I'm registered and paid...Signed up as an intermediate. Looking forward to it.

SECCS registrations will be tracked in the first post....

Excellent. I will sign up Monday as my Audi CLub info is at work. Should be a blast! Are people staying out in Fernley or just making day trips out of it? I think I will stay out there Saturday night.

Signed up as intermediate and paid

I think I will plan on driving to and from my house...No need to stay in fernley. Nick, you can claim some couch space here at the house if needed, whatever you prefer...This should be a lot of fun, I'm glad there will be several of us out there.

Be aware, you need to be AT THE TRACK BY OR BEFORE 7:30AM. Mandetory Driver's meeting is 7:45, and first car out is 8:00AM... Reno is going to make that a stretch for anyone who is not used to getting up early in the morning. No names, but you know who you are. I reccomend getting a room, and sharing.

Party Party Party!

Signed up for the intermediate group and paid for!

For those staying out in Fernley (I think I will as the mandatory meetings are not only in the morning, but also the night before)

Which hotel?

I will be signing up tonight... I don't have my ACNA number on me here at work.

WTF? That's bullshit...Well, can we Reno peeps at least car-pool friday night? :~:

I know, that makes it mandatory to be in Fernley Friday night. Thanks for the offer on the couch by the way; but I am a terrible morning person. For track days, I'm pretty sure I'll be needing a bed. Being out there will make me be on time.

They also do tech inspection on Friday, so you may want to all drive out there anyway unless you want to get up really early on Saturday. Either way this will be a blast.

Oh Crap, maybe I'll just get a room out there now, but crap...

Dean:

For this event, which hotel will host the banquet and driver's meetings?
