I’m still waiting for them to post the motorcycle lapping days. I purchased some 20% off gift certificates last month, anyone else catch the deals they were offering?

Oh nice! I can’t make it though.

And it doesn’t say if there is snow on the track or if it’s dry.

This is what I would expect, but I don’t know where one would find a conditions report.

Don’t know if I can make it, but my options are slow awd with new snows or med rwd with acceptable all seasons. I would think after the first hour there would be enough hard pack / dry spots / a path that I could get away less than optimal (fun) platform.

Yeah I was wondering what the current conditions are. No sense in going if the track is dry.

I think I am going to take my chances with rwd + all seasons.

I am pretty sure there hasn’t been as significant snowfall compared to here and the afternoon high is going to be around 27\* which will probably get track temps up to melting and slushy.

Or I could be the jerk that needs a tow every 3 minutes.

Anyone go? That snow tire requirement sucks but I understand it. Looked like fun:
