SECCS (http://www.seccs.org) is thinking about planning a Track Day / Driving School at Reno-Fernely Raceway (http://www.reno-fernleyraceway.com) this spring.

No dates or cost yet. We need to make sure there's sufficient interest before planning. We are in touch with The Next Level (http://www.e-t-races.com/) driving school that operates at Reno-Fernley, and the track owner, so we may be able to setup a specific day for us, or simply take over one of the already scheduled schools. Depending on demand, we can do a 1 or 2 day school, and hopefully avoid Fridays since many people have to work.

We're hoping for April or May, on a weekend that avoids Reno Region SCCA AutoX. We figure we'll need about 15-20 drivers, at a cost around $200 each.

Please let us know if you're interested, what days would be best for your schedule, and if you'd like a 1 or 2 day event!

I am very interested. As long as it doesn't interfere with the Rim. 1 or 2 day sounds good to me.

Nothing's for sure yet. However it looks like it will be only 1 day, and unfortuantely probably during the dates you listed (Apr 30 is the best date so far), due to the AutoX schedule.

If the bay area/cali guys work, I can use my family cabin by soda springs as an overnight stop to make the drive in the morning to reno a bit easier :)

BUMP!

The track day is not dead! We've had some scheduling issues, and the date's been pushed back. We're now looking at a July or August event. Please see the master thread on SECCS for more info!
