THIS EVENT IS SPONSORED BY AZ MUSTANGS. BELOW IS THE DETAILS FROM AZM.

This is a Track Rental !!!!!

We will be having a track day on 4-7-07 at Speed world All cars are welcome, I have it setup with some friends of the family, so that there will be some {at least 2} prototype Mustangs out there from Ford.
We will have some classes as well as time only runs. We will have a lot of lenience as for TECH. I told the track that there are a good amount of cars in the club that are faster then the rules will let them run. We came to the agreement that I will determine if a car can continue to run if it brakes out of its allowed time or speed. Pretty, if you are fast, but keep it safe and not get stupid out there then you will be able to run all day, We also have permission to have road course cars run so if you have a road car please bring it... the classes will be HEADS UP.. Soon as I get together with some other board members I will post up the classes and there guidelines ... Note that I say guidelines we are doing this for one reason only TO HAVE FUN!!!! If there is any money leftover from the gate fees after I pay for the track, then it will go to the winners of the classes, and if we have enough people that won’t to do a small car show then to the winner of that too...... There will be trophies as well. For all classes as well as fastest reaction time. I have never done this before and hope when the day is over I am not broke and everyone had a lot of fun... if you have any ideas please feel free to PM. me and let me know by a reply if you are going to attend the event... REMEMBER ALL CARS ARE WELCOME..


GATE FEE WILL BE THE NORMAL AND TO RUN ONE OF OUR HEADS UP EVENTS IT WILL BE AN EXTRA $ 10.00
Gates open at 8 AM sign up for the heads up well end at 10:15 AM First race 11:30 AM.

I can't vote on this poll Jeff because everytime I say Im going to race, something ends up happening. I have the day off so I will try to be there, but I fear I might be stuck down by lighting or possibly a comet this time.

The track WILL be sticky. The track prep is being personally supervised by the race organizers.

I have been assured that the track will be prepped well enough for my car to run all out. :Devious:

Oh . . . by the way . . . there will be free pens with every tech card!!!!

I heard from 99_venom that you all were having this track rental on the 7th. Funny thing, I called the offices at Speedworld and asked about a club day for the same day, for the local SVTOA chapter. Frankly, we don't have a problem with anything your group is doing. I requested the date back in January, that's all. I thought something was odd, when I saw that AZ Mustangs were on the same date on Speedworld's schedule. Then, yesterday, it's not. Just a test-n-tune day and our club day/web address is on that date. Obviously, your rental is still a go, just not advertised on the track's website.

Back to the point, we're planning on a few of our members coming out with their Cobras, Lightnings, and GT500s. I hope my bringing this to Burntire's attention doesn't rub anyone wrong. I don't think it's going to impact either club's plan. I was planning on calling the office manager at Speedworld, to confirm/clear up any of this. But, I don't really think this is necessary. Just as long as the people taking the money, at the gate, don't get it crossed up. We're planning on having the dedicated lane to run from, our own area in the pits, etc. Again, we were under the impression that the track was just having a test-n-tune for that date. I'll pass the option of running any of your classes to our membership, if that's ok with Burntire. Burntire, toss me an e-mail to let me know what you think about this. I haven't heard anything on my end, until today. Sorry for any mix-up this may cause.

Thanks,
Tom

AZ Mustangs is renting the track not HPS. So your not offending any of us. I don't know what the deal is. I was told it is a rental and AZ Mustangs paid $5,000 for the track, but they also have said all cars are welcome. Regardless I just want a prepped track and a good time.

HPS is planning a rental in the Fall in conjunction with the Copperstate Mustang Club Car Show.

Welcome to the Site.

Oh, ok. Well, I called my person at Speedworld, just to see what she knew about it. She told me that AZ Mustangs isn't the one that's paying the money, so they didn't want AZ Mustangs' name on the schedule. Either way, I was, also, told that someone from AZ Mustangs called the SVTOA chapter that I am a member of to inform them of the rental. They didn't (from what I've heard) know about the change. I'm the contact for the event. I told that to my person at the track. She's going to have someone from the group that's putting up the money for the rental (read: the renters) call me with any other contact info. Dang, logistical clusterjams suck. At least, the two clubs don't mind using the same track. I was assured from my person at the track that we'd get our lanes and pit area. So, either way, it's still a good deal. If any of your membership would like to check out what our local SVTOA chapter has to offer, feel free to check with one of our members. I have it from the horse's mouth (heh) that our chapter president is going to bring his '07 GT500 out for some runs. He admitted to me that he's a bit rusty at the dragstrip (read: runs road courses mainly), so this should be a good show. Feel free to drop me a line, if anything changes. I don't know if anyone from the AZ Mustangs club will call me or not. And, any contact is better than no contact, right?

Thanks,
Tom

Thanks, Tad. I already talked to Victoria. She said she'd get in touch with whoever is running it all at AZM and have them call me. She already talked to Butch. He said everything was to work out ok. So, I'm just waiting for AZM's people to call me. I'll try to call Jeff, if I don't hear anything from them by, say, Wednesday. No big deal either way.
