Thought I'd start a thread for owners that are interested in doing track days with their cars with other owners. I'll go ahead an start. I'm thinking sometime next year around summer time I'll talk to the owner of Hallett Motor Racing Circuit (a personal friend) in Tulsa, OK and see if we can get something going for a few owners. It shouldn't cost too much. Thoughts?

In general, I don't think you'll get many takers besides local folks. Whatever the day costs, if you're more than a few hours away from a track, it's going to start costing a lot more. It wouldn't be bad I suppose to have a thread saying "Hey, I'm going to this track on this date with this org", but I think a properly organized day for fellow owners at some random spot in the country is a tough sell for most.

Thats why I made the thread was for people to do as you said to post when and where but since I was making it I thought I'd just put it out there that if theres a few owners in the area as soon as the cars ship in this area that is.

The wife and I will be at Sebring with Chin Motorsports in January, assuming I can get 1k miles on it before then.

I'm a current member of Motorsports Ranch Houston. About 40min south of downtown Houston in Angleton. I can bring along any guest for 150$ fee and the track is usually pretty empty on the weekdays. If anyone is interested just PM me.

I intend to track my gt350 as soon as it's delivered and the engine is ready.

I am a member at Atlanta Motorsports Park (in Dawsonville, just north of ATL)and can similarly bring guests or can arrange a full track day if we get enough participants. Don't know when I will get my R (I guess next Spring), but it will live in my garage there with other toys. Not sure how to burn the 1000 miles for break-in. :headbang:

I typically instruct the Wednesday before the Mid America meet at Hallet. I might be in especially if it was small group.

I also instruct for Eagles Canyon in north Texas for their track days and Sam Pack Ford's track days that they put on at the same track. When my car arrives, I'm sure I'll be taking students and others for rides.

67% so far are tech. Im guessing most of these early orders are dealer ordered cars and likely easier to sell the tech pack.

You don’t want to know
Mine is a Tech because:
First priority - fun all-around car
Second priority - track days
Plus, the Recaros aren't comfortable for me

I'd definitely be interested. I live in Illinois but still have a house in Gerogia, whenever I'm there I take my son to AMP and have always wanted the chance to try the track out. If we can get this together I'm in.
