Just got off the phone with Michelin. We definately have the road course on lock down. The wet handling course is looking good, but it drives the price up obviously. They are working their schedule to ensure that we can have something set in stone this fall.

Potential dates:

Oct 8-10
Oct 14-16
Nov 11-13
Dec 9-11

I asked about how involved they wanted to be with this as it would be a great PR move for them to be more involved with the local motorsports community, and they said they'd love to, but they'd bill by the hour for their time...

so that part might be out. I may be able to convince one or two of them to stop by during the event and offer "tips and tricks", but thats all for later down the road.

They are drafting up the rental agreement now and will be emailing it to me later this week.

Right now, I need you guys to spread the word to anyone and everyone so I can get a good tally of how many people will be coming out.

Cus the more people we can get to attend, the lower the price will be.

Getting the invoices for rental options tomorrow, followed by a track tour next week. Looking more and more that Nov 11-13 will be the chosen dates.

Also, a heads up. the more people we can get to lock in to attend, the cheaper the admittance fee will be.

there will be 2 fees, one for racers and one for spectators. I'm trying to keep the racer fee under $100 per head and much less for spectators. get the word out people!!!!
