    I am going to be dragging a friend along for his first track day at Grattan at the end of August and was wondering; Can I purchase time for both of us on my account, or will that cause issues at registration due to it all being under my information? Can I just include his info in the comment section provided at check out, or does he have to set up an account and do it himself. He's not really much of an online shopper, so it'd really be easier for me to do it for him if possible.

    Also, he is going to need to rent leathers for the weekend. My last time out I was talking to a guy that was new to the track and I thought he told me that his leather rental was free due to it being his first time out with STT. Is that accurate, or was that part of the ride right program or some other promotion? I found the page that outlines who to contact for leather rental, but did not see any info about it being free for the "rookies". Either way is fine, I just want to save him a few bucks if possible.

    My wife buys me a trackday every year for my birthday at The August Gingerman date. I have never had an issue.

    Contact Crystal and send them a gift card for the value of the track day.

    Under the ride right program, he can ride the first day FREE; but he needs to call Crystal and register under his own name..

    Ride right also includes 1 day free leather rental. you are responsible for repairs if you have a indecent in them.
    Ride right days are scheduled through Crystal the earlier you call the more likely to get the day you want.

    I haven't seen a lot of ride right giveaways this year.

    I've bought trackdays for my buddy several times and never had a problem.
    Your friend likely needs to call Crystal and setup an account.
    Then you should be able to buy track time for him.

    I was told this weekend that they aren't doing the cards anymore, but if you call Crystal they will give you your first day. We'll see if that pans out.
