Hey, just checked the price for the Irwindale event. $225 for the beginner package? I'm looking at the schedule for the day and it looks like the intermediate group and beginner groups share the day evenly. When do the classes take place for the novice groups if there are any?

i believe the novice group will have instructors during their track time. and that the majority of the day will consist of donuts and figure 8's till the afternoon when they could be running the actualy couse.

the intermediate should be running the course all day in their run groups. but as the registration says, u probably need 2-3 events to be comfortable around the track.

Isn't the event limited to Z and G's? If not then a friend and I might be down to register.

I saw some video from Seatle, looked like a fun course! How'd you do? I only saw runs from top 8 and top 16 qualifiers...

See you Sunday!

just so everyone knows, spectators aren't aloud at this event, so dont tell people to come in the middle of the day, because they will just be turned away.

what are you talking about?

You change tires in the parking structure where you setup camp. Irwindale is a full blown race track.

If you're asking for a place that will change tires for you then 1) you need to learn how to do that yourself and 2) I'm sure there are plenty of other participants that will help you, don't waste money on that
