If you can't see it on FB, it says:

Quote from: Keigwins@TheTrackThat's right! $1 Track day at Thunderhill Raceway! Have never had a chance to come ride with Keigwins@theTack before? Here is your chance to take that leap! We are offering $1 track day to get some new faces out at the track. We will open online registration on Wednesday May 25th at 11 am. Then the price will be dropped to $1! We will sell out fast I am sure, so set your alarm clock on your phones, and make sure you sign up quick! I am sure orders will be coming in faster than we can process them, so we apologize if it says you are registered at first, we will have to go in the order we get them. When we hit the full point, we will close registration. Don't miss this one!

Ken Hill will also be there that day doing classroom sessions.

Ah, now I see.

I might try this for one reason only, to give away to one of you lucky bassards!   ;D

Don't imagine there's a way I could make that date.  Too much crap going on.

Dub, that's magnanimous of you to post up about such a raffle, if you too are going to compete for one of the spots.  Although, I suppose you'd be in A group.  I'd probably list myself as B-.  I'm certainly not a B+.  I've seen B+ riders whizzing past me before, making me look like I'm on a Sunday stroll.  :o

I'll try for B+ and if I cannot get it, B-, then A.

It's not a raffle, you just have to go to the site and register.

I know, but "raffle" was shorter.

Thought I could make it, but as I told TB5, I have to fly to the Moon with NASA that day.  Scheduling conflict and I'll be in Florida too for a funeral, so can't make it.

My loss.

Congrats TB5!

Yeah, I wasn't previously planning on being at this event. But I couldn't miss it so I told my boss I wont be in the office on Mon/Tues that week.

TB5 cannot make it, so I still have this trackday pass to give away.  This is a $200 trackday pass back up for grabs to whomever wants it.

Bump.  Really?  Would have figured someone would think this an awesome chance for a thrill. 

Dub can correct me if I'm wrong, but B- group is basically C but with passing around corners allowed.

Where's RocketRider?  He's willing to travel 700 miles and pay for a trackday, but not 250 miles and get one free?  :o

I bet if you ask on SCR it'll be gone in sixty seconds

I believe B- is a little faster than C, but not much. I think they just more expect you to be a bit more comfortable on the track.
I really cant believe this hasn't been picked up yet. Is anyone on the fence for this? Transportation issues or something? Post up, Dub or I may be able to help out.
