so im a bit confused, just finished signing up for 10/7...how do I know what run group ill be in? (didnt give me an option) and it didnt say whether they were full or not, so I assumed they were not and just paid (is that how they work) is it like NCRC where you be there by 7am?

I emailed the guy but just seeing if anyone could answer my questions here?

when you register for TMR, you put in all that information...are you registered with TMR yet? i know its confusing, but you have to initially register with TMR, then register for the event...

on a side note, i'd call doug instead, hes been known to really fall behind on his e-correspondence...

im on the fence about the track pack now!!! whats the weather like in sonoma during november? any of you guys know from experience? weathers the only reason why i'm stalling, but im in for sure for oct 7th!

PM'd you back, scott

I registered with them, signed up for 10/7, paid, and got a confirmation email. Is that all I need?

on the 7th, wanna do a ride along with me and give me some pointers? I suck at track driving lmao.

I tried calling doug but no answer, just a dead line. What time do I have to show up for TMR? like 7am?

also sonoma is decent in nov, like 50-60 degrees, unless its raining.

You can use the weather channels as a guide, but the weather at the track can still be different. I've driven to the track in pouring rain only to find a patch of sun at the track for the entire day. I guess I'd say believe the weather if it looks all clear, but be skeptical if it shows rain.

It's the exact opposite for track days at Sears Point though. Hope to see more Zs there on 11/19! I have some S2k friends that are likely to join.

so I received this

"Greetings Drivers,

This message is intended to confirm that we have received your event registration for Friday, October 7th at Thunderhill. It should be a great day at the track!

If you haven't made a payment yet, you can go to the 'Payments' page of the www.trackmasters-racing.com website and follow the instructions from there. If you are taking advantage of the 'TrackPack' we've created for this event and November 19th at Infineon, then you can use the following link for your 'TrackPack' payment.

http://www.trackmasters-racing.com/h...eon_track.html

Once you've made a payment your next step will be to prepare and self inspect your vehicle, and wait for additional information from us about the event. Schedule, format, and other features. You can expect this info by this weekend. The Technical Inspection form is also on the website.

Thanks for your support, and please try to grab another driver to join you at this event. We're a little short on drivers as of today, so spread the word wide and far!

See you in the paddock!

Doug Gale
TrackMasters Racing"
