    I find that after riding all day in 90+ temps my only chance of riding day two is large amounts of SLEEP! LOL :lmao:

    I will also need sleep but I will be trying to find a hot girl to do that with and then I will have a pit girl for Sunday. Lol
    It was just an idea for anyone who wants to see the town.

    I read there's a gate fee for everyone over 16. does that include those of us who have paid to ride the track?

    I've done 6-8 STT Putnam dates, none in the past 2 years though. They always gave us a lunch with the $5 entry, maybe they still do?

    Gate fee is 5 bucks per person, I lay out a decent assortment for breakfast including bananas, apples, granola bars, cookies, honey buns and sometimes juices

    Sadly, We no longer provide lunch. With the decline of the economy all venues immediately started increasing costs to offset the loss of many organizations that cut track days from their budgets. For example, I remember BMW spent 150k at acc one year. They cut that from their budget. Acc had to make it up somewhere. Luckily the big names are coming back around. However we can't seem to win because insurance keeps doubling every 2 yrs. I swear we are all in the wrong sport... Point being we had to trim as well with out sky rocketing prices, and yet we still had to raise some.

    Anyway, At acc on occasion I personally pop for catered breakfast. I think I'll be doing that soon
