Hey everyone,

I'll be going down to TMP for the Friday night lapping and then both events on Saturday and Sunday. I was thinking about camping for the whole weekend since it's close to a 2 hour drive from my house. Anyone else camping?? I know that TMP isn't like Shannonville where the gates are open 24/7 and you can come and go as you please. Once the gates are closed you're locked in. Guess I'm gonna have to make sure I bring lots of food LOL.

Unfortunately, I won't be making it out for this weekend as planned :(. Still haven't gotten any resolution from the MTO regarding my claim with them last month (more details here: http://www.casc.on.ca/forums/showthread.php?t=11853 ).

I had plans of camping out at TMP for the weekend, and probably running the Test & Tune on Friday night just for fun! :D $30 to run as many 1/4 mile runs as you can? Spank a few cars in a straight line, then show them how to take a corner or two? ;)

Oh well ... hopefully I'll be back in action for Shannonville :rolleyes:.

Have fun everyone! :cool:

Yes, PM me the list of spectators you will be bringing and I will make sure the list is at the gate and you will not have to pay.

If for some reason you can't send me names in advance and they insist on charging you $10 at the gate, then pay it, come sign the waiver and get your pit pass wrist band, then you can go back to the gate and get your $10 refund.

mopar1, I may have misunderstood you here. I ASSUMED that you wanted to spectate only and check out "Solosprint"... not bring your car on track. So yes, you can come and enjoy the event, but only registered entrants will be allowed to drive a vehicle on track.

You can, however, try to get ridealongs if you bring your Snell M2000, SA2000 or later helmet and sign the waiver. Hit up your fellow club members in advance... they're usually most generous in the morning sessions. In the afternoon, they won't want the weight. ;)
