Little Talladega in Georgia?

[matthewAPM]

My friend and co-owner of T.R.M currently has land with about 5 investors (yes..very rich people), permit and the means to build the track. Its going to be inbetween Lil TDGP and R.A. Its been in the works for several years...there is no pavement yet. There will be no pavement for a very long time. It wil be an insurance nightmare for open track days...I will have full access and will possibly get to help run the track/manage/run private events and I can assure you weekend track days will not be in its future.
Host a weekend "cheap" track day in with several I.A members attening with no experience and watch what happens. See what an insurance company thinks of that. No real track is going to allow inexperienced drivers on the surface without thousands of dollars, professional instruction in the car with them, or a "drivers education" program style track day that insurance companies will believe and most likely not all/ Little Talladega is as cheap as they come because its not a real track...
The closest resource to accomplishing this goal would be finding a parking lot and buying alot of cones. For example, when I was affilication with Xtreme measures we ran a weekend in the parking lots at A.M.S. We instructed inbetween 40-70 students and when the students had off time (morning/lunch/afternoon) we were allowed open track..open rules..unlimited autocross..you name it..it was heaven. We would line up 10 cars infront of local police officers and drag them 0-100 and get thumbs up from them. we'd throw 10 cars on a 3 minute autox at a time...it wasn't reality. To give you an idea...every driver was an instructor or with an instructor...the parking lot rental was 25,000 and each weekend took hellacious amounts of planning and the good reputation and strict driver requirements allowed us to have this fun. Good luck

wait wait wait...did i hear 25,000 to rent the lot? if so, you got riped off.

BTW, pm'd about that track

Call up the track manager at A.M.S and tell him you want the lot for Friday, Saturday and Sunday and insruance for what we did...and I mean the whole front of the race track. If you can get a better price then your last name is Petty. They are the only ones who get deals for that sort of action because they are the only group thats invests millions in using there track so many times each year. Xtremem Measures was THE most reputable teen driving school in the Nation...you would not get a "cut" in the price more so then a nationally talked about school started by a bunch of BMW club racers. There's a reason the schools name was bought out at a price that put its owner in a big fat house in the Hills in N.C and a 5 star job for Petty.

baha. I believe it was around 8,000 per day. I did not do the finances. 1 weekend came to arund 25k. Even with a 500 fee for students and sponsors we would not break even sometimes...we were making national news but not making money..how's that for a good cause. One day is still out of reach. I do not even have the means to get that situated. nor do any of us on here with our income. We got insurance for our good cause and we were allowed to play for what we did which took more planning then any of you could image....All that for a few hours of play each day...WORTH it..I went through 6 sets of year tires a year in those days...could I do it without the help of 40-50 other professionals and instructors..nope. I'll call you when I win the lottary.

SCCA is the most well known national high peformance racing school and racing organization. They have millions, millions of names and thousands of professional instructors. My point proven.
