Sorry I do not think we ever posted the complete Official Gainesville road course june 3rd post,here is the info you need.
Thanks mdemonte
Eric

This list should fill up pretty quickly from the amount of interest already obtained, remember 20 cars is the max.Now this track rental is a gathering of individuals who want to get out on a track to push their limits and talk cars all day long.There is no instructors there really is no leader there is going to be rules to follow and I need everyone involved to help it go smoothly.It is just us and the EMT's out there.Everyone that goes will need to sign off on 2 waivers at the track.Each person will also need a snell 95 or newer helmet,and also be responsable for getting your car ready for the track(brakes,tires in non hazardous state,lugnut torque etc.)

That was another way I liked the setup.Sounds good to me just as long as we are happy! I'll make another with that setup and we'll let everyone have a chance to pick the setup they like best.

O yea,
I PM'ed everyone on the list that has a forum name asking how you would prefer to pay. I need those PM's responded to, I have heard back from some and not heard back from others.

Thanks Guy's

Do they have really HUGE safety cones for the inside of that S turn? Besides, the apex on that turn puts loose wheels in the dirt if I'm reading it correctly. Does anyone have info on track insurance??
My vote is #2
