Wink Gauging interest: Speedring (yes it's time again)

Well I've heard a few of the newer NorCal members showing some interest in Speedring. So I want to gauge interest in a possible Speedring event in the next 1-2 weeks. Last time we did the Sprint Race which included a 5 minute qualifying round followed by 20 minutes of racing (about 40 laps total).

Sprint Race runs $50 but I believe it drops to $40 for a group of 12+. I'm not interested in racing people we don't know. I'd like to have a group of 12-15 (I think 15 is max) from the board (or friends of people on the board)

If the Sprint Race is too much $$$ then we can do 12 minutes of racing for $20 each (about 20 laps). But the Sprint Race is much better IMO.

I know Chad and Dave are itching for a rematch so they can show me what their taillights look like , so........

Are you interested? If so list your name, preferred race ($20 or $40) and date you are free.

Let's tentatively set this for Friday 10/10. Depending on the interest and what fits everyones schedule this may be pushed out.

1. Jason (failsaf3), $40, Anytime.
2.?

I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm an extremely conservative kart driver. You must be confusing me with Chad

It's in Santa Clara. Know where Great America is? SpeedRing is on the other side of the 101.
