    I'm signed up for both days, with a friend from NY in tow. Actually, to be fair, he's the one with a 2 bike trailer, so i guess he'll be towing me :p

    unless Poper gets all ritzy on me, we'll be camping as well.

    anyone close to the track know if they'll have grass planted by then? I didn't even consider that until now w/ the camping...

    oh, and I volunteer to bring extra scraps of plywood so no gets chewed out for denting the pristine new paddock with a side stand!

    I plan on coming down. Just bought a racing SV 650 and need some track time
    Before starting the racing season with Fasttrax the end of the
    Month. Going to need lots of help!

    I'll be there, bringing 3 others from Indy. I'll bet I was the first to sign up for this day.....about an hour after it was available!!! I would think it would sell out. Can't wait to ride this track. Just bought a race ready SV650 and need to ride a track. C-ya all there...Bill

    i would be shocked if it doesn't sell out. For many of us, being the first motorcycle group on a new track is a once in a lifetime experience.

    I'll be taking tons of pictures, so 30 years from now, I can be the old guy with the photo album saying "i remember when all this was just open fields" :p

    I'll be there with my r6 along with my neighbor (who got me into the sport), he's got an aprilia RSV.
    The track looks really interesting; it's gonna be my second track day and for sure it'll be a blast.
    SO camping is permitted on site I take it?

    There is going to be a campground at the track (eventually?). According to an e-mail I received as a reply, the management of the track will let us know sometime in March whether or not we will be able to stay in the paddock with campers or have to move to the campground in the evening.

    My question to BG
    "Hello,
    Will participants at the motorcycling events who arrive with RVs and a
    trailer be permitted to stay in the paddock overnight or will they be
    required to move to the campground?
    Thank you, Dean"

    Their response,
    "We'll know the answer to this in March when we get further along with
    construction and closer to opening. Thanks Dean.

    -Brad"

    I was just at an event that Bluegrass presented and it did not sound like the garages would be ready........ there seemed to be some question as to whether the track would be ready. They definitely did not want to be specific about any opening date.
