        South Florida run-offs planned

        I apologize if it is a duplicate but first tine did not seem to go thru.

        I am in the early stage of planning w/ another member to secure an airfield to do run offs on the runway. This location is an 11,000 ft. runway. This would be like Gustav did. Plan to 30 to 150 mph runs and w/ the length can even do 190 or 200 w/ room to slow down.

        I need to know if there is an interest amoung local So. FL. members and also to open this to other sportscars in our area.

        Before going any further I need to know the level of interest. For the day cost maybe approx. $150 per car but this is not certain.

        With enough interest I could see doing this event every 3 months if possible.

        Please respond if you're game to have the chance to run your beast balls out and against many other competitors.

        Guys lets get this off the ground.

        Thank you all,

        M5Ranger... Juan

        I go to Miami / Florida all the time. If I am in town, I may rent a car just to participate.... Or at the very least, I will help you out Ranger.

        Hey T-bone thank you for your comment.
        I've been dreaming of putting this together for a long while. This has to be a blast to run wide open and go for top end.
        I will do my best to make it happen. The logistics are not really bad.

        Will keep at it,

        M5Ranger...Juan
