    Food concession for the weekend is Brazplatz!!!! Looks to be super yum!!!!!

    Bratplatz.com!!!!!

    Also - we have the potluck Saturday night........ check the STT FB for updates on that......

    And we have this crazy photo contest for sexy "control rider" (ha! we don't really have any of those - we have instructors!!!!) that my wife concocted..... you can win a free trackday. Look on Facebook for instructions on that.....

    Gates open approx 5:00pm Friday night and stay open 24/7 after that. Road Atlanta is in the Eastern Time Zone.

    There is $5/person per day gate fee for Sportbike Track Time events at Road Atlanta - Bring some cash with you! (no charge for camping or the limited power though).

    PLEASE NOTE OUR ON TRACK SCHEDULE:


    Saturday: 9am-12pm, 1pm-5pm (ie: normal)

    Sunday: 9am-10am, 12pm-6pm (ie: not normal)

    This is to accommodate quiet time on Sunday - and also make sure you, our customer - get maximum track time.

    There is a MANDATORY rider's meeting BOTH days at 8:20am. If you are not at this meeting... we will pull your sticker and you will not ride. Even if you want to skip the first session on Sunday and wait until noon to ride, you MUST be at the rider's meeting at 8:20am. After that you can go nap or whatever.....

    Tech and Registration open 7am Saturday and Sunday morning, and close at 8:20am for the rider's meeting. They will re-open after the rider's meeting and close for the day at 10:30am. Road Atlanta is in the EASTERN time zone.

    If you are riding both days, you only need to register and tech once - on Saturday.

    Please note some NEW tech rules regarding GoPro (or similar) cameras:

    - all Gopros mounted on a motorcycle must have a tether from the camera case to a point on the motorcycle.

    - helmet mounted Gopros are not allowed at all on track

    - in our novice group, Gopros are not allowed on track in the morning sessions - in the afternoon sessions they are fine as long as the above rules are followed.

    Novice riders:

    We will have an area of the paddock coned off for you, close to the footbridge across the front straight, as you will be going to the classrooms which are located in the outer paddock.

    Gates will open at approx 5pm on Friday and are 24/7 through the weekend after that. Just go to the gate guard to pay and get your band.

    We ride R*** or shine, come prepared.

    Unfortunately, there is a $5.00 gate fee per day for anyone entering 16 years of age or older at this track. BRING SOME CASH WITH YOU.

    Camping is allowed and free.

    We are using the "new" turn twelve and the chicane at turn two-three.

    We are using the "new" (inside) pit area.

    There is very little 30 or 50 amp power in Road Atlanta's pits. If you have a generator, bring it.

    Tire service will be open Friday night, all day Saturday, 7am-3pm Sunday.

    We bring over 100 tires to each event at killer prices, if you need tires, wait till you get there.

    We also have t-shirts, back protectors and gloves with us at great prices.

    Gas is available at the track, its race gas and pricey, there is a jiffy mart thingy about 2 miles from the track.

    Showers are available.

    Pets are allowed but MUST be on a leash at all times. Please "clean up" after your pets.

    Any questions? Post up here please.

    Never been to this track before. I'll be in novice area. What's the deal with power in the novice area? I'm not running anything but some fans. Just need a 110 outlet.

    Thanks

    Get there early and just find a pole.. there is a new trailer in the center of the pits if I am not mistaken.. I am sure that is where the meetings will be..other than that if not get by the bridge to save you the walk

    Trevor May correct me if I am wrong but what he has up top is from last year. As of now and construction etc the new tower is still being built. I do believe there is a double wide trailer in the pits and that will serve as the classroom so pit wherever.
