It is a touring opportunity to drive your car at speed on a real road race course, testing both your skills and the capabilities of your car.

There are basic rules enforced to permit drivers quality track time at their own speed and experience level. Participation is limited so that drivers and passengers maximize their day at the Autobahn. Registration will be closed once the event is full.

Your link to the event registration info is broken; I think this is what you were trying to link to.

So for total costs, it looks like the registration fee is $175 for each day or $350 for the whole weekend), plus a $20 membership fee, assuming you register before April 1 (and assuming the event doesn't fill up)?

I know you posted this here, but given that it's operated by the Northwoods Region Shelby Club, I have to ask: are non-GT/Cobra/etc owners welcome? I know of some clubs that are happy to invite everyone, until all slots fill up and long-standing members that didn't register in time want to race.
