On April 14th Rich and I are going to the Gainesville Raceway for the road course test and tune. If anyone would like to join us please post. here's a link with the info.....

One session: from 10 am to 4 pm and the cost is $40.00 for Car & Driver. All drivers must be entered, one car & driver per entry.

i tired calling and emailing them on the specifics of the event. And got nothing back. Im trying to find out if there gonna let us lap the road course or just pine cone for a car and driver setup. If im gonna travel to gainsville i wanna test out there course not there pine cones ya know. Im def in but some more clarity to as what this even is would be helpfull other then test and tune. I mean thats preety general. They normally do test tune days at pocono with nasa or teams that prepay the event but open dates are like none existant or they will let you run the course cautioned . If they will let us lap the course . I would be down there faster then they could open the track for that day lol.

I just called the track......I was told we will be running NON-cautioned laps with 30 second intervals between cars.
It was a very short conversation because I was on my way out the door......if anyone wants to try to get more info the # is 352-377-0046
