    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.

    Huey from Marietta Motorsports will be in the house for all your suspension and parts needs. If you need something in particular - I would call their shop to make sure they bring it.

    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.

    Unfortunately there will be no food concession at the track this weekend.

    Any questions? Post up here please.
