Glenn at HPR is on the lookout for another day for us, but the truth is that weekend days at the track are VERY hard to come by. JJ has it right, I originally booked this day back in December and it was the ONLY available weekend day left at that time.
There is a hierarchy to the booking of events at HPR -
1) The clubs that built it get first priority (MRA, SCCA, MCCA, ETC)
2) Groups that wish to have WHOLE weekends are second on the list
3) Single day renters are third.
I'm in the last category and have tried both multi-day events and weekdays and they didn't go well financially. So, for now, this is what we have. Fantastic events once or twice a year.
I'm working on one more for this year. Believe me when I say you all will be the first to know if it's going to happen.
Thank you for the support, and the feedback.

It's too bad the weekday rentals don't work out since the schedule shows a ton of openings.
Guess it's too hard to get enough people to get time off and I suppose even the shops that're closed Mondays don't have enough track day enthusiasts to fill the gaps.
You probably need like 50 or more riders to commit to make it worthwhile and while you'd think that's a small number given all the riders in the frontrange I can see where many can't or won't take a day off to ride.
Bummer...

Weekday events have proven to have enthusiastic riders, just not enough of them. Sucks, but the man has to pay the bills and the expenses are pretty much locked in from the start. Hopefully a weekend day works out though.

Even if Glenn cuts him a break on the track rental, the cost for insurance, EMTs and corner workers etc are still the same..

The true answer to the question of what Oscar was doing is that he was showing the track official his Chicane sticker so he could go out on the track, but let's be honest for a second, does anyone ever really know WTF Oscar is up to? No need to answer, it's a rhetorical question.
Well, boys and girls, it's time for a new game. . .
I like to call this game - "Who owns this finger?"
Below is a series of cropped images of some of our nefarious guests offering a gesture that has been dubbed "the photographer's salute". Your goal is to see if you can determine the owner of each of the offensive fingers.
Lucky enough for the owners of the fingers, I do not work for in the law enforcement field, so there are no worries of someone showing up at your work to issue you a citation . . .
Offender 1 . . .
Offender 2 (I will add that this rider is a repeat offender) . . .
Offender 3 (I should expect nothing less from this rider) . . .

No cheating! If you are the owner of one of the above fingers, you cannot help others figure out who it is . . .

I think I know who #3 is, because he gave me a quick finger too. Ewww.
