    THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT!

    Gates will open at approx 4pm Friday til 9:59pm, Sat 7am - 9pm, Sun 7am - 5pm. Jennings is in the Eastern time zone.

    The gate is locked after hours: gate jumpers are shot on sight.

    Jennings has a strict 102dB SPL sound emissions regulation - if your bike is louder than this you will be black flagged and cannot ride until the problem is corrected.

    There is a $5.00 gate charge at Jennings GP, Bring some CASH with you.

    We bring over 100 Michelin tires with us to our events at KILLER prices, so if you need tires wait til you arrive and we can sell them to you and get them mounted up for you "while you wait"

    Tires will be open 6pm-8pm Friday, 7am-7pm Sat and 7am til 3pm Sun.

    We are running the standard CCW direction both days at Jennings this year.

    Pets are allowed at Jennings but must be on a leash at all times. Please "clean up" after your pets.

    Motels are located in Valdosta GA about 15 miles North on I-75

    Camping is allowed and electric is available, you pay the track for that. There is SOME power at Jennings - it can be unreliable. You may want to bring a generator.

    Sign up and tech opens at 7am both days and closes at 10:30am, please be on time.

    Mandatory riders meeting is at 8:20am both days.

    Showers are available at Jennings GP.

    Fuel is available at the track.

    The concession will be open for breakfast and lunch... and he makes a hell of a breakfast sammy.... just sayin'.

    Huey from Marietta Motorsports will be at this event for suspension/tech services, and jokes.

    We ride "rain or shine" come prepared for Southern rain showers.

    Any questions? Post up here!

    I was just informed by my boss that I have a little over a weeks vacation left to take before year end. What to do what to do? I just realized I have an extra Q3 still in the box too. What to do what to do.

    Not knowing the layout. do most people with campers park in a camper area and leave there bikes at/near pit area? Or do they just pit in the camp area? Not sure how far things are away from each other.

    Things are pretty close to each other so no worries, you can pit where you camp. I don't have a camper and don't know if you need electricity or not but I've heard their electrical set up is sketchy (don't know why) so be aware of that.

    If you are planning on using the 30/50amp power at Jennings, especially the ones out in the field, I would suggest using a circuit tester before plugging your RV in. I have heard horror stories over the years about some of those posts being wired incorrectly and damaging electrical systems...

    ...In case there are any new riders or new-to-STT riders, are the GoPro rules the same as usual?

    I don't think I've been to Jennings a single weekend and the power didn't cut out at least once (as in all power poles stop transferring power). Keep an eye o_O on your tire warmers to make sure that they are on and make sure you're going out on hot tires...:eek:

    Do you know gates open? The track says STT determines that. Coming from MI so might be a chance i will be rambling in early but i can piddle around if i need to.

    No - I did not say that. The gate closes for entry at that time.

    Typically the gate time on Friday for many of our tracks is 5pm - I always try to get the gate opened as soon as possible, but the final decision lies with the track. If Jennings does not have another renter there on Friday, they are generally pretty cool about letting us in when they can.
