: Another Grattan Trip Option

Guys,

Let me know what you think about this.

Instead of renting out Grattan, we could just do a double header at Grattan with Sportbike Track Time.

They go to Grattan several times a year. We could all register early so our spots are garanteed.

STT usually charges $100 for the day and you have the benefits of a Michelin rep and distributor on site. They do tire changes etc. Also, STT provides lunch.

I think this is a good option too just in case guys need to start cancelling. If 20 of us go, it will be cool. We can set up our own tent area or crash the garages. Whatever's clever.

Let me have your feedback on this because I wanted to put the deposit on the track no later than Jan.

This year, STT went to Grattan on the following dates:

May 7th and 8th. Sat and Sun.
May 23rd Monday Limited endurance day where they rotate 30 min. sessions

June 4th and 5th Sat and Sun.

July 2nd and 3rd Sat and Sun.
July 4th Monday Limited endurance day
July 25th Monday Limited Endurance Day

August 6th and 7th Sat and Sun
August 29th Monday Limited Endurance Day

Sept. 12th Monday Limited Endurance Day


I'm guessing next year will be very similar. They go to Grattan several times a year.

I guess that would give you enough time to settle into your new job. Right?

If we are going to do this, I want all the Core Members to be there. So we should get a date that is convenient for everyone. I'm probably the most flexible.

The straightaway is 3,000 feet. More elevation changes than VIR.

It's like in the middle of michigan, all the way to the west near the water.





I'm game for sept. I'll have the 1krr then too if that's the case.
