we have approx. 10 or so (with non-stingers), but personally, I don't like the trace part, unless we collectively agree that we'll run each driver 30 seconds apart, to have free range of the track and not have accidents with others, etc.. unless 2-3 friends agree to run next to each other, but only as by choice and everyone agrees the track time to be shared that way ? in an organized way.
but for 1/4 runs, it seems its not cheaper to rent the track and there's time to get more than enough runs thru.
Let us know how many people there and how many runs you get thru ?
You have mods ?
Have you been there before ? I assume lots of seating for guests to hang out and record runs ?
You only need 10 sec per car on this track. I did not feel that I was going to have an accident at any point in my 3 sets of 3 laps.
The marshals make sure cars are properly spaced. Even with 10 cars on the track you will be mostly by yourself.
It's not a race, you can take your time and no-one will bother you. Open lapping allows you to come in and out of the track as many times as you like.
Line up and they signal you to go! As far as I could tell most people do 1 warm up, 1or 2 hot laps, cool down lap and get out!
No one will pass you on the turns and even on the straights you need to signal them to pass otherwise they get black flagged and kicked out immediately.
The marshals there were super strict on safety!
I don't have any real performance mods and my stock breaks worked fine with proper cool-down laps on the track or the small road around the pits. if you park it after you get out of the track you will boil your break fluid and will have to wait up to an hour to get back on the track!
E-breaks should be disabled at all times! if you park and they go ON while hot the breaks will fuse together and you will be stuck!
It was my first time! No spectators allowed at the moment (Covid-19) but a passenger that can be in your car and on the sidewall to take some videos is ok.
I can do 2 hot laps and my oil temp only went up to ~110c. Your breaks is your limiting factor but if you commit to cool down lap they can go for the entire time you are there!
Let schedule a social distancing meet up!
