For those looking to drive their cars fast in a safe and controlled environment with turns, look no further! Here's the registration links for the CGI Motorsports track day at Gingerman Raceway in MI:

If you have any questions on which group you think you should register for, feel free to shoot me or @MATT DAMOND a PM. We honestly recommend an instructor for anyone who questions whether of not they need one, has not tracked in awhile, or has not been to this track. There are class room sessions for the Novice group, which we recommend on everyone attending, unless you're a seasoned veteran of racing. Don't sign up for the "advance group" to be cool Mr hot shot, they'll knock you down at the track to a lower group.

The pricing has increased a bit over years past, but is still quite reasonable for the amount of track time when compared to most other venues.

The cost is $275 for Novice, and $225 for Intermediate and Advance. The extra $50 covers the instructors for Novices (if you've previously been approved for solo track time by CGI as a Novice, the fee may be waived and you may run sans instructor).

For "Novice Group" Those with little to null tracking experience, or haven't tracked in years, an instructor is required! Register via this link: https://cgimotorsports.configio.com/ShoppingCart.aspx?com=detailview&iid=249&diid=250#Detail

For "Intermediate Group" Those with plenty of seat time, not necessarily at Gingerman; or a decent amount tracking, and familiar with Gingerman. Register via this link: https://cgimotorsports.configio.com/ShoppingCart.aspx?com=detailview&iid=249&diid=251#Detail

For "Advance Group" Those with lots of experience tracking, possibly some competitive forms of racing, or a vast knowledge of Gingerman. Register via this link: https://cgimotorsports.configio.com/ShoppingCart.aspx?com=detailview&iid=249&diid=252#Detail

[doublepost=1473272910][/doublepost]Exciting news, everyone:

@steve@versatune will be in attendance and holding a drawing for a free VersaTune license and Cable at Satuday evening's dinner!

Thanks Steve!!
 
Well, once again my work schedule is preventing me from making this meet. I keep making it to ENM, but can't make the meet that's three times closer. Lame.:cry:
 
Lets be honest here...this is the real important question....did anyone remember to bring supplies for polish horseshoes?! (a frisbee and 2 ski poles). If not I'm going to have to source those because this is damn important. @Maisonvi; you have any old ski equipment?
 
I'm at the sun n sand. Are you guys hanging out tonight?

[doublepost=1473520465][/doublepost]We will be heading out to Craig's Cruisers for some go-karting/arcade fun in a bit, once we can get everyone interested in going rounded up.

Steve, are you on Facebook?
