Track Event @ Homestead with Hooked on Driving (using NASCAR 3 & 4)!!

1-Day Homestead Track Event with Hooked on Driving
Advance group will be using NASCAR turns 3 & 4. You do not need a full roll cage for this group unless you plan on taking a passenger. Passengers in this group are allowed but only if car has full roll cage and passenger side protection bars. AND they plan on doing a lead-follow at limited speed for the Intermediate group for a few laps to let them experience the thrill of driving on the banking.

No other HPDE club is running this format. The last event was a success with no incidents in the advance group.

Homestead/Miami Speedway with the usual 3 run groups, 5 sessions each.

Registration Fee: $295.00
Be sure to register for this event at www.hookedondriving.com prior to going to the track.

Bring out your car to beautiful Homestead Miami Speedway for a full day of Performance Driving. Coaches will be on hand for beginners and those who would still like to have some instruction.
There will be three run groups with limited numbers for driving with a clear track.
Lunch will be included with your entry fee, and any family and crew can purchase food at the track.
The Corvette school will have Corvettes available for rental and they will be provided with an instructor. You can rent them by the day . For further information contact Henry Gilbert at [masked]

    Hey George, is your wife bringing cookies again? Yummy! I'm going to get 4 stalls together for us, but more if need be. I'll post my phone number prior to the event here.

    Carlos- the cookies are a default setup!- need to replenish the energy in between sessions. How do you reserve stalls? I am usually early at HMS, as I leave 35 miles away and is accessible via the turnpike- so let me know how can I get the stalls

    There's a very diplomatic way about reserving stalls at HMS...
    I get there before the gates open, and then I block off however many stalls I need with garbage cans. Since you're going, I'll just reserve one for you! The esiest way, really, is just to meet up early at the event (at the gate) and then park together.

    good deal- we 'll coordinate and meet at the gate. Either that or I bring my 2 jacks and throw them in the stalls so they look taken and busy :)

    Let's coordinate at the gate, about 6:45 AM. I think they open the gates at 7 AM. Did anyone get a schedule?
    Here's my cell # 904-599-2569

    Carlos- sounds good, I am aiming being there around 7am. BTW I got the schedule today, will email it to you- seems that due to expected bad weather they will be running B+C together

    Sorry, guys. I'll have to sit this one out again. Work is hectic and baby's only 4 weeks away from making his grand entrance. Enjoy the event safely! :-)

    The NASCAR banks were "bleh". I actually didn't like them as much as the ones at Daytona. Several of us moved down to the Intermediate group so we could run the standard track.
