WRXatlanta.com & Siegel Racing Track Day @ Lil 'Talladega: Friday, May 25th

Discussion in 'Meetups & Events' started by Alex, Mar 13, 2007.

    Be one of the first to get out on the new TGP! Located in Talladega, Alabama, it is not only within driving distance (<2 hours), it is an open track (offering the maximum amount off safety possible). It offers challenging turns as well as a chance to enjoy sheer acceleration on the front and back straights.

    Scott Siegel, of Siegel Racing (http://www.siegelracing.com) has agreed to help us set the day up. We will open the track up to 10 members at $205 ea + spectators (about 1-2 per person). Why the price increase? TGP has just redesigned and resurfaced their new track (and wow is it an improvement!). Naturally, the rates have increased, however, they're only up $20 from our track event last year. We're able to do $205 which includes lunch, radios, etc. Also, John Swain may be joining us with his photography

    Update! We would like all guests to bring $5 for lunch. All Drivers will be covered, however, we'd like to be sure we have enough food for all guests as well. This should be more than adequate to provide guests with food and drink throughout the day.

    More info to come soon! For now, please let us know if you are interested.

    I would like to be a spectator, ride in some cars. I will chip in like $30 or so to whomever wants to take me. :) I'm spending way too much money this month and need to save up to pay the lump 6month car insurence policy also in April. So I'm broke for this. I'm spending nearly $1200 this month on the car upgrades. gah!

    The track is bigger, why not open it up to 15? We've run 11 on the old track and it was fine. ;)

    Sign me up as long as it's not the 21st and it IS on a weekend.

    This will be open to all cars. It does appear that Saturdays are booked for a LONG time. There are Sundays and Fridays available earlier, and Thursdays available a lot. What days are preferable to most people.

    I like doing them on Thursdays...

    IF it has to be a weekday, Thursdays are generally best for me. I think I would prefer a Friday over a Sunday.

    I am seriously interested, just have to pass it by the wife, and its contigent on the date. Weekdays are probably better for me, since I have solo on the weekends.

    Since my company just got bought out - I have no vacation time 'till September, so a Sat or Sun would be best for me. I might could work something out for a Thurs or Fri though.

    If you're not wanting (or can't get a spot) to drive, I know I'll be able to drive people around a few laps. So come on out and hang. I'd bet everyone that wants will be able to find a seat.
