Track Days at Motorsports Ranch - Cresson

You guys should sign up for one of the open track days at Cresson where four different configurations can be run. You can see the schedules at the various HPDE providers along with SCCA.

Apex has a Saturday 9/8 date for the 3.1 that will only have 25 cars per run group. The Driver's Edge has 3.1 two day events the first weekends in October and November.

There is a motel that is decent right across from the track (Scottish Inn) or you can stay in Benbrook or southwest side of Ft. Worth at Hampton Inn or higher level or can stay in Granbury just south of the track. Plenty within 20 minutes or so drive. The Scottish Inn will give you a discount if you mention the group you are running with.

You will find the 3.1 much more challenging than COTA, though, without the rock star feeling you get when at COTA.

I just got approved to do the Apex 9/8 date as PROVISIONAL INTERMEDIATE since it's for SOLO INTERMEDIATE AND ADVANCED ONLY. Total understandard being provisional since it will be my first time at this track. They will have instructors available to ride with me the first session or two which I think is a great idea the first time out on a new track.
Looks like the cost is only $230 for the day.

Come out on a The Drivers Edge, Edge Addicts, or Chin event as those of us in RED / ADVANCED can take passengers. If you've never been on Cresson, especially the 1.3 or 3.1, it will help to see the typical lines for cars like ours.

Great! Will be there on the 3.1 this weekend, then 3.1 F 11/16 with Apex. For the Edge Addicts Triple Play, one of my sons will be in the car on Saturday (1.3) and Sunday (1.7), and I'll be in it Monday for the 3.1 while he goes back to school.
