Correct. We're working on a way to pre-register online but we're not quite ready for that yet. Hopefully by the second or third event.

Registration will start early so we can get everyone in and set up before track time begins.

We'll have a schedule up soon.

b/c you can't run efficiently run a (potential) 80 car grid. So you'll have to set a driver cap at some point.

Following down_shift's advice would be wise.

reasonable driver limit is a must. i don't think we'll have anything to worry about for the FOERST event.

I joined motorsportsreg.com.

It will take a few days to get everything situated but maybe we'll be able to take on-line registrations for the FOERST event. We're going to try. We should have enough time.

What is a good driver limit? What has been your experience in the past? I guess I'm asking how many is too many? Remember we'll have a beginner course and an advanced course.

im think we may need to set a 30 driver cap. i doubt we will get more then that but just in case this does blow up. this way we can run 3 run groups of 10 or depending on how many tandem drivers we get. it will be 4 runs groups. but im super stoked about these events and hopefully they will do well so me and berry can open up more venues.

Do this and your event will run much smoother..

I do want to go to some other events. That's a lot of the reason for scheduling this one so far in advance. I want to do everything possible to make sure ours go as smooth as possible for everyone.

We're going to pre-reg some drivers at the Import Alliance event at the Superspeedway on July 25th.

On-line registration will begin Aug. 1st. That should give plenty of time to fill the spots.

We will be limiting the number of cars to make sure everyone gets plenty of track time.
