I want to go up to Laguna Seca in May.
NCRC has a Friday May 6 and a Monday May 16
Speed Ventures has a Fri-Sat-Sun on May 20-22.
I'm okay with all the dates but Monday May 16th.
[MENTION=1146]Joszer[/MENTION] I believe the 10 dollar get fee is a track specific fee, not an organizational fee. The speedventures May 20-22 says there is no gate fee for laguna seca. I've been to Willow Springs for multiple events over the years to participate/watch put on by different organizations, pretty sure the track is asking 10 bucks per person just to get on the property.

You kids are lucky to have so many awesome venues and so many dry weekends (side benefit of your ever-present drought) to get out to the track.
I don't think a track entry fee would be a deal breaker for me LOL. Even up here, a track day to Portland or The Ridge winds up costing me at least $650 -- considering an overnight stay, gas to and from the track, gas at the track, then tack on fluids, any required qualified shop "nut and bolt" paperwork that a club might require, track day insurance (if available), etc. There's also pads and tires, etc., but those are just the cost of keeping the lights on for doing this stuff. For a road trip to CA, sigh, much more, but it would be worth it, considering I'm an old fart and not likely to be doing this indefinitely.
Aside: I was born and raised in San Jose, CA. We moved up here in 1996 when my daughter was about 15 months. In 2004, I purchased an SVT Focus and started attending HPDEs with that car -- modding it for track prep along the way. Ever since then, I've wanted to road trip to NorCal to do some track days. Sadly, I never got a chance to do that when I was living in the Bay Area. I wasn't even aware you could do that kind of thing. Maybe i would have taken my first generation MR2 or the 1976 280Z I inherited from my dad, if I'd known.
