For all you track junkies out there

I want to let all of you know of some track events that I have going on this month. There is an event at the streets of willow on April 18 for only $100 bucks, and one at buttonwillow on May 30. Check out our web site: http://www.redlinetrackevents.com/
to find out more about us. We're called Redline Events and we promise the most track time for the money. We haven't had many RX-7's at any of our tack events yet. Thought you might want to take a look. Thanks.

Well, for the streets, it's the full course with the bowl in CW fashion. Pretty much the same as always. For button, we're running the full course with the bus stop, most likely race #14 configuration, with is CCW, but we may decide to run CW, not sure yet.

I went to their first event which was at Streets of Willow. This company was good and you can't beat the price. I would recommend them.

not to be a kill joy, but what(if any) insurance and safety services do you provide during your "track events"? Ambulance and safety vehicle/tow service? these are things that should be provided and if they are not provided participants should understand the risk they are taking. I did not see any mention of these items on your website.

We focus strongly on safety, and the fact that we all plan to drive our cars home after the day is over. Other than a few drivers that have blown their engines, we have had no safety issues whatsoever, and the officials at our track events (flaggers and corner worker) often comment on how "clean" an event we run. All track events are covered with insurance and safety personal such as fire rescue and tow service. However, any damage you may incur and tow service form the track is the drivers responsibility. I appreciate all the question about safety, and I will cover them better on the website. Thanks -Chris.

again not to bust on you personally, but making all of this clear on your website would improve your turn out IMO. lots of groups out there do not have simple liability coverage and don't spend the extra money to hire professional safety vehicles and ambulances. not tow trucks to haul your broken car back home. safety vehicles that have personnel that can remove you from a damaged car, ie JAWS of life and such and put out a fire. if you are providing this then it sounds like a good deal. if your not then charging a couple bucks more per driver would be the way to go.

I don't mind the suggestions at all tims. I do know there is still a lot to be done to the website. I should let everyone know that all tracks require liability coverage and safety personal at all events. There will NEVER be any driving on any track without the proper safety precautions at the track prior to use. This is always included in the price of the track event.
