    Club meet up BBQ trackday Hpr same day as the race school?

    What'd ya guys think?
    Not a lot of Hpr weekend bike days some are probly taking the school and it's never really been a busy day for the track day. Just a thought.

    I'm not sure what you consider being not a busy day. In 2012 & 2013 HPR had 50 & 55 riders pay for open lapping. In 2014 it was around 70 riders. Those riders are all in one session at the same time.

    Now 70 riders for open lapping wouldn't normally be busy because the track would do slow and fast sessions. On the MRA school day will have one session for students and the other session will be for all the paid open lapping riders.

    In my opinion 60-70 "racers" on the track at the same time is no big deal. We've done it the past few years during the 4 hour endurance race. Now a mix a potentially new track day riders to the fastest racers in Colorado could be a lot less fun for all involved.

    Im im not trying to smash your idea, actually I like it. I just think some might be disappointed by the volume of riders and experience levels on track at the same time.
    No doubt about the future, No regrets about the past!

    Hey man, I love you idea. I don't think that would be the best day though since it would be busy, and when not on the track the race school students are talking with their instructors all day.
