Having been "involved" in the Vegas and Speedworld Buick events I would like to offer my opinion to hopefully make this event happen.
First, no way in hell can we do this as a track rental as we could never cover the expenses.
Vegas and Speedworld were always done with the track having a lane or 2 for Buicks. This worked out well, and it was very orderly, and we usually also had a reserved area in the pits for Buicks.
We had test-'n-tune runs, and also had competition runs with payouts. We would charge each racer that wanted to participate donated a fee which was for winners.
Further, at this point we do not have many Buick track racers, we should invite and solicit other brands for a "Buick vs the World" race to kick ass on Demons, Mustangs and other victims!
Make this a 2 day event, Sat/Sun as it would be very a-pealing to out-of-townr's.
Many hotels there are decent and very reasonable. We did a couple 2 day Buick events there a few years ago, and Saturday was a "party night", and there were a few hangovers for the social animals - I was NOT one of them!
Most of us stayed at a host motel with a special rate which helped.
OK Brett, take it from here, and I am preparing a turbo Buick to take on the new "Super" cars of the world!
I may not kick there ass with my new project, but we can have a "Super Class" vs the "Working Class" for bragging rights!
