Default Gainesville Raceway Test & Tune

Anyone interested in going to this test and tune? I know everytime I went to an auto-x in Gainesville I really enjoyed the layouts. I've been going through Gainesville withdrawals lately since there hasn't been a auto-x out there in a while (next one is 7/23/06). Post here if you plan on going!



From the Raceway web page:

Road Course - Open Test & Tune!
Saturday, June 10, 2006

The driving and vehicle dynamics test track is a road course facility designed and built specifically with a mix of different types of curves, corners, intersections, and straight-aways.

This first Test & Tune event will have two sessions: Session A is from 8am to 12 noon and the cost is $30.00. Session B is from 1pm to 5pm and the cost is $30.00. All day costs $50.00. Crew and Spectators are $5.00 each.

The morning and afternoon course will differ and offer challenges to both inexperienced and veteran drivers.

* All Drivers Must Have a Helmet and Pass a Basic Tech Inspection.
* Racecars must meet SCCA standards.
* Course times are not provided. Please bring a friend and a stopwatch if you want your own times.

Call the track office for more information at 352-377-0046. Directions can be found on the Track Information page under Maps.

sounds great... but is this a thing where anybody can just go to the gate that day or do you have to register/prepay and only a limited amount of people can get it?

if they dont limit registration... i can see a huge number of people showing up and people barely getting 2 runs...

I'll be out of town that weekend, but it sounds pretty cool. Iceman1 has a point Kenny. You should call them and find out.

Just called the raceway and there is no pre-registration or payment. As far as how many runs you get depends upon how many cars show up. It's kind of dissappointing not knowing how many runs we are guaranteed for each session.

More than likely I will still go. Oh yeah Travis, was that you on Sandridge Rd. yesterday? I could have sworn the yellow ap2 had a lip on it when it passed
