This is a 1.35 mile road course designed primarily for motorcycles which makes it a great track for a Miata with plenty of run-off room. Space will be limited to the first 36 drivers, first come first serve. Cost is $90 a driver, or if a Peachtree Miata Club Member $75. For group D driver/instructors cost is $70 non-PMC or $55 PMC member. Drivers will be expected to flag corners on alternating runs. We expect that each group will be able to run 4 15-20 minute sessions. Lap times will not be officially taken as this is a non-competitive event.
