SaWEET!

I can meet anywhere. How about we coordinate it with a pre-existing event? Car show, drag strip, autocross? Anyone?
 
Good ideas...let's give this a week to attract some attention...I'll bump it each day.

I'm very interested, but will prob. not make it (atleast not this year anymore) unless it's within 2-3 hrs. away, assuming we're talking a partial day gtg. So far, I'm by far the furthest north, along w/rice lk. WI. guy) and west, so far everyone will be well S or E of me. Eau Claire/Tomah area would work, maybe Lacrosse. Somewhere in that area to the North and/or west. I would likely be able to make most any day as long as the majority of the gtg is afternoon/evening thing. Rock Falls drag is near Eau Claire and may work as Ramviperiffic suggested, he would prob. know best which days are open there or other things happening in central WI.

Or

One area outside of what I previously mentioned that may work for me would be Road America - Elkhart Lake, WI and coincides w/another event, not just any event, an SRT event.
Oct. 19, 20 or 21 they host the SRT Track Experience and I am gonna try to make one of those days. Anyone else already planning(signed up?) to go or thinking about it? That could work great, especially if there a few or more doing the track. It could be a 1-2 day deal w/plenty of evening pk. lot b.s.ing, etc. night before and/or after depending on which day track event is done. Could hang the afternoon/evening before or sometime day after for one's only interested in a 1/2 day or so gtg and are not planning to stay over a night or two.
 
Super idea!

What does everyone else think?

I've been to the SRT Track Experience at Atlanta Raceway...when they still had SRT 10's...

If you have not been to a Track Experience you need to try it!
 
Tryin' it, That's my plan, especially since I'm still supposed to have it free (gotta do it for that reason if no other) w/my truck and E. lake is the closest to me there has been. Too bad they don't still have the trucks, but I'd prob. have tried others mostly anyway and see what there like, can drive a truck most anytime!
 
You will note that I passed your idea to the Michigan folks...maybe they will make their way in this direction and we can manage a dinner together.
 
Registration?????

Hello,

At Road America this October 19th-20th is SRT Track Days. Where/how do you register for this? My bud in town is going too, he bought a new SRT8 GC last Fall and needs to use up his pass.

Thanks for your help.

Are you going/registering, either or? Let's try to coordinate which date to do the track. Right now I can pretty much do any of the three dates they list. I want to get signed up asap, I'm only assuming they have openings on all three days right now. I'll prob. call next day or two and make sure what they still have open.

I signed up for the 19th of October. Who else is coming?:rock:

You're locked in for the 19th? I'll sign up for then too. Any that want to come for gtg/hang out we can do it that day/evening and/or something Sat. I'll prob. be staying the nt. especially if anything ends up happening sat.
 
Maybe do the track experience on Friday the 19th and GTG at Lunch on the 20th?
 
I'm open too!

I just signed up for the 19th. I am sure I can adjust my date if necessary. The 20th would work for me too. Point is, I am gonna be there!:rock:

I went and signed for the 19th also. So it looks like a gtg outside of the track exp. could be that evening and/or Sat. near track or due west back towards Eau Claire and MN, if anyone wants to meet up thats not gonna track.

Anyone have any 1st hand knowledge of hotels near track. How many, what names, how close, personally stayed at any(liked/disliked), etc.
 
Sorry, Havent been here in a while.
Great idea but i couldnt make it if i tried. Things on my end are really bad currently. Just barely surviving currently and things are only getting worse as the days wear on.
 
I finally got confirmed!

...from SRT Track Experience that is. Got my e-mail confirmation today. Sounds like they are allowing up to 75 drivers per class.


SOOOOOOOOOOO stoked! Now, Who else is gonna go?
