    You should. It's been way too long, outside of Keef, Adam, Sandy, slm, Cam, Brits/Canadians, the last time I saw most of you guys was in Madison '05. We're not getting any younger.

    For anyone scheduling around us.

    Friday: Not sure yet, probably just helping people get settled at the house. Maybe going to the track in the evening.
    Saturday: Car show with the DMC, dyno runs.
    Sunday: HPDE in the BMW.

    There is a lot more stuff on the website now: https://www.carfestusa.com/

    Auto-x is $40
    Dyno is $60
    Car Show Entry is $15
    HPDE is $235

    There is a endurance kart team race going; that would take some coordination.

    Anyone have any idea what they might be doing beyond General Admission, if anything? Not implying that you have to do more than spectate, just starting to see who might be interested in what.

    Sorry, $285. Fat fingers.

    Tyler and I were going over that today. It's 5, 20 minute run group sessions and then a 60 minute open session. Per day. That's a lot of track time.

    Registration for most of the events includes admission for that day.

    Karting is a very exciting and accessible form of racing - experience speed, thrills, and close racing action! Plus, all of your required equipment is provided.

    Karting Details:
    For kart rentals, we provide racers with a helmet, neck brace, jacket, and gloves. We recommend that you wear long sleeves and long pants. Closed-toe shoes are required but not provided.

    A GX 270cc Honda 4-stroke 9.5 horsepower engine powers the karts. Our rental karts can reach speeds up to 45 mph. For safety reasons the driver must be able to comfortably reach both pedals. To drive an adult rental kart, racers must be at least 5 feet tall.

    RESTRICTIONS: 13 years and older, between 5 and 6.5 feet tall, under 280 pounds.
    I am almost too tall and am currently too heavy.

    I am trying to get Ash to run the MINI in Autox. She said she wants someone to sit in the passanger seat and yell at her, though.

    I'm trying to organize all of this. I can do it. Rich, you want me to swing by and pick you up?

    Nah, I need to stretch the FiST's legs. Thanks for the offer though. About time I got east of Ohio. Haven't been to PA since '02. I was able to get that Fri/Sat off. Back to work that Monday.

    Yelling is a bit much. I meant like someone giving me logical directions and keeping me from having an anxiety attack.
