| August motorcars Area 27 track day June 4
Has anyone participated in one of these? They're running one this friday i'm thinking of attending. Assuming it's not just for people who've purchased from them? Anyone else planning on being there?

They state how much track time you get for that 700$?
I usto go to VCMC and the Jaguar events, thats like 70$ for 5 laps, 60 seconds a piece, over the span of 6hrs.
If your getting a full hour + of racing, thats decent pricing.

You get 5 x 20 minute sessions, plus unlimited access to the autocross course all day. I didn't think it was unreasonable for al that.

^never been, but I've head it is:
-guaranteed 4 sessions, with a possible 5th session.
-Each session is 20min each.
Over a span of a whole day.

Over a span of a whole day. | Ya sounds correct- here's the exact wording;
"Each driver gets approximately (5) 20-minute sessions at each track day as well as time on the autocross course at their own leisure."

The track is unreal, you’re going to have a blast!
I was lucky enough to ride shotgun for one 20 minute session in a friend’s track-ready BMW M2 and it was a bucket list kind of ride

Lol as a car guy, watching the other run groups can be just as fun as your own sessions driving.
Also cars don’t mean shit if they can’t get driven well.
