Hey everyone -

As long as the weather is nice I'm going to head over to Beaverun for their open track day this Friday. Even though it costs $150 - I mean, how dare they charge $50 more than Nelson Ledges?!?

Anyway, just wondering - anyone else going Friday? Can anyone who has been to one of their open track events give a review?

Thanks!!

Why do they always have to be on Fridays? Don't these organizers know I have class?

 

IF all goes well I would really like to get there. Just depends on my helper/crew. Is there another one scheduled that you know of?

 

I think its a $170 this weekend for the HPDE 1 day, whats the track time on fun dayz I think HPDE is 4-5 runs for 30 minutes

 

Last time I went to a open track day we got about 10, 20min sessions!!! and I'm not kidding!! There was only about 20 cars there. 2 runs groups. well woth the $150. They also gave us free lunch.

this was in the spring though, not sure what it's like now. I might come up, but my tires are getting low on tred and I need them for sat, and sunday and I don't have a back up set.

 

How does it work, You just show up. What time. Where did you get the info. There website says something about advance peformance driving for $265. Nothing regarding costs for open lapping day.

 

The best thing to do would be to call them and ask how they are going to be running the track day on friday.

 

Hey, I'm glad some h-t people might be able to show up. That's how I originally heard about these track days - on here.

If you go to their web site (www.beaverun.com), check out the calendar and look for "Open/Club Lapping Day". That is what is scheduled this Friday. I called them up (724-535-1000) and they emailed me a very basic sheet on it that they ask you to return prior to Friday - it has a short safety checklist and asks for some basic car/driver information. Then, when you show up Friday morning you pay $150 and you're set.

Registration is 8-9 am and the track is open 9am-5pm with a one hour lunch break. It is alternating 15 minute run groups although if it isn't too crowded they will do 20 minute run groups - I asked and so far they don't expect too many people this week. But anyway expect at least 15 minutes each hour which isn't bad.

That's pretty much all I know, hope it helps!
