2020 Schedule Changes

@Mongo Is there a set date where a decision will be made with Pitt? Just want to keep an eye out. I know PA will be opening some counties come May 8 and Butler wasnt on the “for sure” staying closed until the end of May list.

 

I know it's likely been discussed already. But does anyone know how much it course to rent a track?

I feel like we (I like to help others spend their money) should consider if it's feasible to take this matter into our hands. Just sayin'.

 

same for me. i have to request vacation time from work and plan the 16 hour drive.

 

Hahahaha... Well start with picking out the track. It could be as little as 5k per day to as much as 25k per day just for the track rental and maybe an ambulance if you're lucky. And you will probably need your own insurance which would probably cost a few thousand. And that's if the track will even rent to you which they probably won't or can't.
The way Jennings is trying to do it is sketchy at best.

 

That's not cheap nor easy. I really didn't know. I bet kart tracks are cheaper...thinking minimoto instead. None of them are open in the midatlantic/northeast area, that I know of.

 

well that's what I do actually. At Carolina motorsports park mostly, and we have the same requirements on a smaller scale, I have to have insurance and an ambulance on sight etc. The herrin compound is open in GA but most others are closed, the limit of people in one spot is what makes it very very hard to open.

 

NYST is open. they have done at least 1 track day and someone is planning a track day for vintage sometime in may

 

@noles19, I was gonna ask who would even be monitoring social distancing at the racetrack if only a small population is present but I guess in this day and age of social media, the phone cameras will be rolling.

@cyclocrossfool, thanks for the heads-up. I'm not sure I want to visit NY for the time being!

When this all started people were at Nola racing cmra I believe and someone from the paddock called the cops and reported them and the sheriff showed up and shut them down while the track was trying to figure out what to do. So you'd be surprised

 

Wow. That is surprising. I guess I'll be towing my bikes for shakeout rides in industrial parks for the time being.

 

Comparing that nazi to mentally challenged people is a compliment she doesn't deserve.

 

So do family members become "crew" in those cases at road Atlanta and Roebling?

 

@Mongo thanks for keeping us informed and up to date.

 

my fear is the tracks open up prematurely, another wave of the virus comes out, and the states close everything for the summer.
