The first session would be follow the leader for the first few laps to get people warmed up and show people who haven't ridden THIS track the line. Reducing materials and overhead(actually paying instructors) will keep costs down and help provide more track time to people looking for more track time. If successful at this years track days and get more interest and get a better idea of the budget you can expand to add more time and beginner groups.

    This is essentially the model that TPM track days uses and they are a bit cheaper($50 member $170/day) if you go to more than 2 or 3 days with them. They do offer a beginner group, but even that instruction is not as good as TTD and Fishtail. But for an experienced rider it's more track time at a lower price. If you've gone to a few track days at the same place it gets redundant. It's pretty much all the same advice unless you're get one on one instruction.
    Glad i could help lol

    Re: Poll: New track day NHMS

    I appreciate all the feedback from everyone and have thought over my plans very carefully.

    At this time, I have decide to not do this. I weighed out everyone's input and came to the conclusion that I'm not willing to risk the potential financial loss in order to get some "free" track time. I would also rather focus my efforts on my racing program, than a part time business venture that has such a high risk for such a little payout.

    Anyways, this might change in the future, but for now, that's where I'm at.
    Thanks to everyone for there support.
