Does anyone have any information on whether there will be organized track days at HPR yet? If so, what about dates and pricing? Just thought I'd get this started. Thanks!

I'm working on having some track days there in 2009. I'll post up info as soon as I have it. Pricing also TBA

RYBO (Chicane Trackdays) said he was planning to run some trackdays at HPR.
But as far as I know nothing has been officially announced/scheduled.
EDIT: NINJA'D!!!!!!!!
And yes, the actual prices, dates, and other details have been slow in coming from HPR themselves.
(Don't know if they're just being track teases or just haven't finalized the details yet.)
+1 on really wanting to know the details.
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet.
It's been difficult scheduling the track because CAMA wants to be sure that the clubs that make up CAMA get their needs met first. To my knowledge they are finalizing details about outside rentals soon and I should have some info.
I'm also working on scheduled days at PPIR and Pueblo for 2009 and will publish a schedule as soon as I have it!

yup! the MRA is one of the CAMA clubs and have their schedule for the track confirmed.
You won't want to miss the June races with the USGPRU joining in! Think about whole grids filled with 2 stroke GP machines!
5/9 - 5/10 MRA Race #2 at HPR
6/6 - 6/7 MRA Race #5 at HPR (with USGPRU)
7/25 - 7/26 MRA Race #8 at HPR
8/8 - 8/9 MRA Race #9 at HPR
8/29 - 8/30 MRA Race #10 at HPR
Let's keep our fingers crossed that CAMA brings back Thursday bike nights like what they ran at SCR.
I can't wait...
'02 RC-51 - Street
'05 Pitster Pro 125 - Pitbike madness

I'm relatively ignorant to track days and what not, but while I was at Performance Cycle in Denver, the guy helping me out told me you don't need a novice license/permit or whatever you call it to participate in a track day at HPR. Is this true?

Since HPR has yet to officially open, they probably have not yet determined the requirements. RYBO would have more insight on this plus he has his own requirements for Chicane regardless of the location of the event. I would hope that CAMA does require some sort of certification like PMP has done the past 2 years if they plan on sponsoring their own track days. It would be unfortunate to have another incident like La Junta in 2006.
SCR was easy to do since you didn't need a full compliment of cornerworkers. HPR is gonna be tough since you can't see the whole track from the pits. Would suck to go down somewhere unseen. With that I think HPR will be more $$ per event if you need cornerworkers.
