I am pissed.!!!!!!!!  First off in my area there are tons of peolple getting off the street and going to do track days. ( I'm cool with that)

BUT>>>  the track days are falling on days that we had all day friday racer practice and LP days.  SO now these days are selling out months in advance due to the new riders on the track.  SO thats now more money to practice on a NESBA and TPM day plus membership fee to the org.  By the way this shit just happened to me.  The NESBA days for the 16th and may 5th are sold out.  So i get a call saying this guy will sell you his spot for both days for 250 a pop.  F CK that!!!!!!!!  The day only cost 170.  
And what is this crap of charging and extra 10 buck processing fee for using a credit card
PLEASE CCS and LP give us back the racer practice day.

I have seen that there is a day, maybe two with no racers pratice and a bunch of scrub track dayerz are filling our pratice.  We need to get our pratice days back.

just checked the summit web site.... NO RACERS PRATICE!!!!!!!!!!!  WTF!!!!!!!!!!  there is like one, maybe two where MARRC helped us out and got the day.   fuggen track day orgs!   >:( 

I still think we should park in front of the gates and make it so difficult for these clubs that they will NEVER take our pratice days again!   >:(    >:(    >:(

So long story short is this?: Friday "Test & Tunes" are being turned into regular Track Days? WTF!?
Is this information listed on this site as to which Fridays at such and such a Track are now open Track Days?

I'm not racing at this time,I will be later this season hopefully.

 I think that Friday practice should be for racers only.
I understand the td guys want track time,but they need to realize that you guys need to get dialed in.
 The org know this & should recognize it.I know they want to make $$ but you guys need time to work on things & get set-up right

So you are saying there is not a practice on Fri May 5 for racers unless we pre registered?

Smoke, what tracks are refering to specifically? More info on which tracks this is happening at would be helpful.

FYI: for those in the Midwest, Blackhawk Farms does have it's own open trackdays available, but they are preserving the Fridays before CCS events as a test and tune day for racers. If you go to their site, you will find that by clicking on the "test and tune" link in the lower right hand corner, you can sign up in advance for  the day you choose.

Do or do not, there is no "try".

Smoke is refering to Summit Point, main I believe.  That is the one that I checked.  Cornerspeed still does racers pratice as normal.

I am about to form my own track day org and work with MARRC and get racers pratice back.  I would buy up the days before every summit weekend and would be open to Students and racers only.

I think the only one to blame here is MARRC, or whoever used to host the track day for not reserving it again.

You snooze you lose.

Was up garry?  I need to call you.  
The only way you can ride on May 5th is if you register and become a member of NESBA.  You better hope they have spots open.

SUP GARY!!!!!!!!!!!!

We will all have to hook up in our 15 min pratice only!  Still a little bitter about this.  

I have written a letter to MARRC about this.  I did not flame them of vent at them.  I personally will never bad mouth marrc.  I wrote to them to see what I can to do ensure that these pathetic little scrub orgs don't do this to us again.

I still say we should cause a huge traffic jam in front of the gates friday morning and make life difficult for Nesba.
