Refund Policy
• None. Not even for weather (as this is just too hard to predict). Once you register for this event you are
making a commitment to attend. If you cannot make it your fees will be forfeited and no credits will be given.

Hey, anyone that can make GJ queasy on a road course is a driver in my book, but I don't think they'll run if it rains anyway. I called the promoter (wannagofast) out on it over on the Alley and evidently "all the big motorsports events" don't give refunds for bad weather.

Now I understand forfeiting the coin if you don't show or have a mechanical failure, but in the event of bad weather they should at least give a rain date or credit for a future event. Plus, I read the entry fee is 2x what they charged down in Florida last year.

I was all excited about this until I read the policy. I canÔÇÖt see paying $200 for a catered lunch in the chance it rains. A make-up date would be better than nothing.

i agree that the weather policy is bullshit. a make-up date or future credit should be offered. As for the "all the big motorsports events" non-sense ive never seen a refund policy like this.

I cant wait to get to Roebling again see what kind of times i can put down now. My car is on full JRZ RS Pros and about 200whp more than the last time you saw it.
