how much is it to fill it?
how many miles out of a tank?
i know they seem like stupid questions but i need to factor every penny because im poorbut i also have a weeks worth of vaca that i have to use before the end of the year

01 SV650S (RC51 eater)/07 690SM /03 300EXC/14 XTZ1200
TRACKS:Firebird/NHMS/VIR/Calabogie/California Speedway/NJMP/MMC/NYST/Palmer/Thompson/Club Motorsports
To offset the cost of getting down there...put cameras in the RV and make it a reality show.![]()
Ox driving while Kham gives directions and Tomato tries to translate...I'd pay to see it.
2006 Triumph Speed Triple - Street
2003 R6 - Track
2000 SV650 - Street/Track
That's right, back to a 2 cylinder, 3 cylinder, and a 4 cylinder.

quick #'s
RV = free room for trip
GAS = $250 per person at 4 riders round trip +/- might have a 5th which would bring gas - $50 each = $200 round trip
Food = extra weight
Water = hydration
TD's at JGP = $310 or 103.33 / day prices are diff for this if ya don't do all three days and from the sounds of it ya need to move quick on these
TD at JGP w/ Penguin = $250
Strippers ??? =
Beer ??? =
dragin knees in FLA = Priceless

TO RECAP
4-5 guys drive to Jennings GP in Florida ....... ride JGP sat sun mon like we're GP stars ....... take a day off .... do the penguin school on wed ..... drive home. anyone![]()
If ya need to know cost, here goes ....
You pay for your TD's (as many as you want of 4 available) $310 for sat sun mon = 103.33 a day rate if you pre register for the package of three days and $250 for Penguin day Wed =====>> gas is $250 P/P with only 4 guys and $200 P/P with 5 guys and that's round trip @ 3000 miles if MPG is better .... we party more ..... if MPG is worse I cover it. These #'s are figured @ $3.00/gal avg'd and 3000 mi is to account for possible extra driving ( restarants, the gap, the tail etc....) and driver/navigator error
Food is at the expected intervals and you buy what you want ..... group meals are dutch.
Beer etc.... should be kept moderate as we are going to be doing TD's and I'm NOT your mother. Any other forms of entertainment should be at your discretion and at your assumed risk (i'm not going to pick you up at T*****'s house in Huckachuby GA so you can get to the track )
etc.......If ya have any questions .... direct them to Denno ButafucoJ/K
Hopefully this answers all questions

yeah. its a bit longer than i have time for. still thinking. if a day could be shaved off at the beginning and end it could work for me.
22nd-leave
23rd-drive/arrive (with 3-4 guys it should be doable to drive through the night)
24-26th- track
26th- drive a little grab dinner and a good nights sleep
27th-drive (probably be home early wed morn.)
then i could sleep all night on the 28tyh and work on the 29th.
but thats just me. i wont have a streetbike so stopping for local roads wont really be in my agenda even though it sounds like fun.

Sorry to hear that Brian.
But doing the Penguin School the 28th will cap the weekend just right.
I thought of doing this schedule ...... rush down ...... learn a new track trying not to crash ...... then rush home ......... sounds too much like work and besides this is supposed to be a vacation

Funny you mention him.. talked to him last night he has sold his bike in preparation to moving to Hong Kong
Man...wish I could make this. But there is simply no scenerio I can dream up that has me away from home over Thanksgiving! (Even thinking about creates negative Karma!)
Wait...there is one scenerio...if I was looking to give my wife a reason to divorce me this would be PERFECT!
I hope you haven't shot your vacation wad for next year Matt. Would love to get a few guys and do Summit Point and Grattan next spring/summer!
Have a great time and post up a trip report!
