ALL MAZDA TRACK DAY - Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca: 2004/08/28

THE ALL MAZDA TRACK DAY DETAILS


Guys:
I want to announce that I’ve put together an all Mazda Track Day at Laguna Seca on Saturday, August 28, 2004. The ALL MAZDA TRACK DAY is open to all Mazda street vehicles and production racecars that meet the sound limits and safety standards.

My main focus for this new event was to hold the price line down as much as possible, since Laguna Seca track days are very expensive now (+$225. a day avg.). To that end, and with the help of a few key sponsors, we've been able to establish a reasonable price of $165, for the event. This will also include lunch and an event T-Shirt.

The day is being limited to 60 participants’ total, divided into only 3 RUN GROUPS, so everyone will get MAX track time. No sitting around for hours waiting to run again.


I'd like to give a BIG thank you to CORKSPORT (http://www.corksport.com) for stepping up and helping out the Mazda Community by title-sponsoring this event at the last minute. Their participation has really helped us keep the cost down for all event participants. Also Mr. Aaron Tachibana, who some of you know is a FD and a Miata owner, through his MIATA PERFORMANCE CLUB OF AMERICA is sanctioning the on track activities.


For full details, and to register and pay, please visit:

http://track.rotarynews.com


NOTE: This deal is already close to 50% sold out on word of mouth alone, so if you’re interested please sign up ASAP to get in on the fun!

Btw, since getting a weekend date at MRLS is almost impossible now, I've been begging Mazda to open a day for Mazda enthusiast again, and they finally agreed. So here we are... let's take full advantage of this deal and have a blast!!


Thank you all and see you at the track!!

-Berny (BERN) H.

Guys:
Both GROUP B (intermidiate) and GROUP C (novice) are now SOLD OUT! There are only spots available in the GROUP A (advanced race group)!

Sorry guys, you can still register, by sending me an e-mail, and get on the STAND-BYE list if wanted... there are always people who drop out before the event.

You can also still register on the track website, and you will automatically be put on the STAND-BYE wait list. If you really want to sign-up go ahead and we'll do our best to try and get you on.

I wish you told us earlier about this Bern. We've known less than 1 day and it's already sold out.

Hey... everyone else (PUBLIC) also knew about it the same amount of time as all you here... also. There were a very few that were in the know, because of an inside line to me and the event, but publically, it's only been out one day. I apologize, but a Laguna event is always widely popular and the space is limited by the track folks.

If I can get enough interest, I'd love to do an all RX event later. But this deal was a one shot oppurtunity for me. I'll see what I can do about another event.

Btw, you're on the wait list.

Thanks,

-Bern

P.S. This was the only forum where I actually mentioned it previously... about a week or two ago on another string. I told folks to be ready.. SEE HERE:

You mean RX-8 peeps?? If so, there aren't many on the waiting list. Those of you from this forum know if you are the wait list or not, so maybe you could post and let "thew" know who you are. I'd rather not post this info, it's better it comes directly from the folks here.

Bern, I think what thew really wanted to know was where everyone is on the list, the better to estimate one's chances to actually attend.

I submitted my app to get on the waiting list for intermediate. Any chance of being on waiting lists for both intermediate and beginner?

"thew" we don't have you down as paying?!?!? So, I'm not sure what's up with that deal, but please send me a PM or e-mail with your PAYPAL account info and we'll double-check and give you a full refund ASAP, if you'd like.... I don't want you to feel that we are scamming you or anything. So, please let me know and I'll get on it ASAP!!
