after watching some of the coverage this weekend I couldn't help but be thinking that I'd love to drive there. I think we'd see prolonged speeds like we're not even used to.

My S2 got up to 149 according to traqmate. Never seen that before (in the S2)

My head says NJMP because it is close to home and a more technical track. But my heart/vote (I did vote) goes for Daytona to cross off another bucket list track.

Track rental is $35k a day so we would need numbers to get our own race run group.


So it is safe to say we'll have a few practice days?

Currently working with PBOC for the price of a two day Cup only track sessions with 75 minutes per day. If price dictates we may need to do a combined practice and qual sessions with PBOC and a Cup only race group. The rental cost for the track is costly, so creative scheduling is a must to make it affordable.

But to Karl's question directly, I dont think we can afford any practice days just for Cup. However, PBOC does do an enduro race with practice and qual sessions on Friday which would be available to Cup drivers.Maybe we could work out a price for some sessions less the actual enduro.

I'm changing my vote. if Jeremy and me can setup our convoy it should be manageable unless there's some unforeseen circumstances.

Looks like I need to push PBOC for some details on the pricing for Daytona.

We could race with PCA in Oct 2013 ??? A lot cheaper, maybe buy track track from them for practices ??

Nope, been there with Pca, they won't do it. And, Pca is not the less expensive of any of our options regardless. Plus, everyone needs to join pca and get a pca license..

yeah, but even for a few bucks more, PCA is probably worth it. And Daytona is so big that we don't really need our own run group, I'm sure a staggered start would work just fine, no?
