***NEW DATE*** Famoso Raceway Private Track Rental - NOW 01/30/2010***

[MercedesBenz_Forever]

Okay fellas, we're calling this one...

FAMOSO 2010 - THE REDEMPTION

I have reserved Famoso Raceway 1/4 mile track on Saturday 01/09/2010 with a backup date of 01/16/2009.... As usual, we will have both (racing) lanes dedicated to our private use. Temperatures are expected to be between 60 and 65 F all day long with relatively low humidity. In other words, it will be an ideal day for racing, so bring your A game Ironically, my car may not be ready for this event :banghead:

In order to avoid being stuck with half the track rental fee myself like what almost happened last time, I will only add people to the list who have actually paid and confirmed their spots. Spots will be limited. If something happens and you need to cancel, a full re-fund will be issued as long as you cancel at least 24 hour before the event.


Payment of $250 per car must be sent via PayPal to jsunner@hotmail.com. When sending payment, please ensure the following:

1) List your Full Name, Screen Name, and Forum you belong to (if any).
2) E-mail Address
3) A good contact number
4) The car you are bringing (year, make, model, mods)
5) Please make sure to click on PERSONAL as shown below:

How long of a track is it?

I need some track time!

[MercedesBenz_Forever]

By the way guys, this will likely be our last big event until November 2010, as temps will climb soon after that.....and Famoso will be out of the picture. We may attempt a mini rental at Sacramento again in February, but after that, record-setting weather conditions will not be optimal.

This will be the.....

Well... you can't hit 200 mph in the mile

[Definitive]

Any way to push this to the 16th??? A few of us would love to go, but cant on the 9th...

Top speed, of course, but the Texas mile time will be interesting, do you intend to run?

Why wouldn't it be ready?

Yes, it is a lot of work, and it rarely goes as scheduled, good luck.

Wow! Good to hear Robert! What kind of seats, roll cage and wheels are you going with?
