Heartland Park Wednesday Road Warriors

Like to try driving on a track but don't want to pay the $200-400 for the normal HPDE weekends? Here is your chance:

http://www.hpt.com/road-road.cfm

Heartland Park and DPE are sponsoring Wednesday Road Warriors. The second Wednesday of every month, track time starting at 5PM to sundown for $35.

Here are some pictures from the very first even this past week:












Here are some action shots by a professional photographer:

All you need is a car that won't dump all it's fluids on the track and a SA95+ approved helmet. Hope to see you out there!

I don't think the Miata made it out there. There were quite a few cars that showed up after I was out instructing the Elise on the first lap, so that particular Miata may have made it and then left when the event had to stop (because of the weather).

As I understand it, last month there were several Miata's out there.

Next event, July 13th!

The track will be closed in August and most likely September so make sure to come out to this event for some cheap/fun track time!

Updated DPE Road Warriors Schedule for Heartland Park

If all goes well with the repaving, we'll only miss August and will run in September and October. September will be the Mazda event (run for $20 instead of $35), by the way. This latest schedule info is according to Heartland Park Topeka folks, and obviously subject to change depending on the repaving schedule.

For those of you thinking about joining us, please feel free to check the latest DPE Road Warriors schedule periodically at http://www.dpeweb.com/Events/RoadWarriors.aspx to get more info and confirm event dates - if anything changes we'll report it there. We always look forward to seeing some RX-7s out there. Come by and say hi to the guys in the DPE shirts while you're at it.

As far as I know, it's not coming back. If I have some time (and money), I'll create a forum this summer.
