quite possibly in. Need some help with transportation to and from, will pitch in for gas. I can provide a trailer that fits 4 bikes, just need a truck to pull it. I could also use a roommate to split hotel costs with.

Go ahead and register...ASAP.
You need to get their ID card if you don't already have it.
Well figure transportation out.

IMPORTANT!

Make sure you e-mail them and let them know you want to be in the beginner program. Otherwise you can't take the school.

Do it...just do it!

My confirmation email says I was transferred to the May 3rd Beginners Program.
So...... check your confirmation email first, then email if you see a problem.

Dear members,

As of this week all TrackTactics events at Willow Springs International Raceway have been canceled. We have been working diligently to find an alternative location and as of today we are not able to find a solution. We have therefore decided to cancel all events until further notice. TrackTactics will continue running the website and be a positive force in encouraging people to go to the track but sadly we will not be able to host any events for 2010.

During the next two weeks all events that have been purchased will be refunded to the card used for payment. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact us via email or phone.

Remember, track days are for everyone so please continue to send us pictures and stories of your experiences.

Respectfully Yours
TrackTactics

I don't even know if you can use the word epic fail for this. Anybody have the skinny on why they are not hosting anymore events for 2010?
