the wilwoods are a reasonable price
I did a couple 4 track days on the bike two years ago... track days are a too much fun, too much.
btw, I'm pretty sure price also includes standby time for the paramedics...

I need to call and get some details. I'll let you know.
The way I read it, is that 3/8 would have a motorcycle group, along with the car group(s).
Turn One says, "* Cars & 1 Motorcycle Run Group". But I'll double check and let you know.

Well, no offense to any one, but as far as I'm concerned: One. I am going - this is my chance. I've ordered brakes and fluid just for the 8th.
I've got to get my deposit in before the end of the week to insure an instructor and to get the early registration discount.
Jon is thinking about coming down with his kid to spectate. I assume you are in. Other than that -
I'll make a "who's in" post.
Nic - PM me your cell number. I'll call you tomorrow after I talk to Turn One. Do you have any questions you want me to ask?

That'd be great. Come on up.
Looks like it's only about an hour to the Track from Columbia.
If you need to contact the event manager, send an email to sylvia@carolinamotorsportspark.com

DE events are not timed and no "racing" allowed. Won't be able to tell who wins or loses.
