    Palmer - Fishtail August 28

    Anyone else doing this date? This will be my first time at Palmer and I'm looking to share a garage?

    I think its $50.00...not sure the size or how many can fit comfortably.

    Any suggestions, guidance or sharing would be appreciated...!

    I'm a cheapskate so I bring an easy-up and park on the gravel at the edge of the tarmac. There's plenty of room. Just make sure that the easy-up is well tied down, it can get pretty windy there.

    I'd like to go to this and would split a garage. This would only be my second time at the track though

    I'm just jumping into track days this season starting with some California Superbike School sessions and I cannot believe Palmer has a good looking track. I grew up 4.1 miles away from where it is now. Parents are still in RI, would love to bring the ape up and make a weekend out of it. $50!?!

    For the garage. Not the track day, I'm sure.

    Yes the garage is $50.00. You can pay online prior to getting there on the track website or pay cash when you're there. Every time I have been there I have rented a spot. There is nothing in there except a 125volt GFCI outlet. Make sure that you check to see if it's working. I had one last time that was no good. Bring seats and a fold up table if you can, like I said it's a open bare garage. It is usually almost empty. Only a few guys rent it. I was there with my buddy he brought 3 bikes and I had one. It's not a very big spot not like Loulden.The track Sheriff Is really cool if you're using more space then you rented he will look away as long as there is a lot of open spaces. The garages are nice and cool on the hot days and a good breeze blows through.
