    How does this "race car upgrade" business work? I'd love to head up there but I have no intention of tracking my LGT. Looking at the driving school page on the BIR website, it looks to be about $30 more per session for their spec car vs. your own car. Same deal here?

    Looks good for another 2 days and 10 hours as of 1:30pm today.

    IDK about the upgrade costs... I'll call and post up an answer shortly...

    EDIT:

    So about $250

    I am not sure how many people per day, but I would think they would limit the sales, or honor the pass another day. Worst case, they would refund you I would think...

    BIR offer's two options.

    1. You can bring your own car and drive it all day for one price.
    2. You can rent a Spec Racer per session. (25mins)

    This is a really good deal. They will be utilizing both the old 3.1 and 2.5 mile tracks on the same day on Sept 20 & Oct 4. They will try and staff accordingly to registration.
