I'd like to go but won't be able to. It would be fun to get a group together to do a track night at Harris Hill when they have them. We need to figure out a time run down as a group to SAR for sure. Much more fun to run with groups than alone out there.

I'd be so in on this!
Do they do affordable track days for non members? Membership is crazy expensive and just not worth it if you don't live near the track.

Also, the 3rd works for me, but weather is looking kinda shitty then too.

Last I looked they had novice days for $150, which includes classes and 4-20 minute sessions. Considering most peeps have 0 seat time on a track could be a great thing for a group experience. Then afterwards cruise to a local restaurant for dinner. Just a thought.

They do "Track Night in America" SCCA events at Harris Hill Road. Cost is like $150 for 3x 15-20 minute sessions. I think there is one next week. https://www.tracknightinamerica.com/events/1987462-track-night-2017-austin-june-7

However there isn't much instruction (no in-car instruction) aside from a novice meeting or two and a follow-lap session, so I'd actually recommend a track day novice pays a little more and does a two-day event with full time in-car instruction and classroom time with a group like Drivers Edge. You'll spend a little more, but you'll get more out of it.

If you just want to check the checkbox of driving on a track, Track Night in America events are good for that, for sure. I've done like 5 of them.

The weather was fucking terrible for the LMR thing and the Austin S550 meetup. It should have been pushed another week.

Cars 'n Coffee @ the Oasis this Sunday. I'll probably be there. Also there's a Spokes/SASCA autox at River City Church this Saturday too, but there won't be too many S550s at that, aside from mine and maybe an EB.
