Wow, the forum is really taking off. Might be a good idea to rent out the entire greater Milwaukee area so there is enough parking

Allenton Park and Ride at the intersection of 41 and 33  was Earl's suggestion.

Do you have any others?

I chatted with @SteelBlue balls since he does things at RA, and have also emailed RA to see if we can sneak in and hang out for a bit. I think it would be awesome to have lunch at the concession stand

Get a Gearbox burger. Grilled cheese with a burger in the middle.

I REALLY want to go for this but my July 4th week is always pretty crowded.  Although we should have a small get together for everyone there for the HAWK vintage weekend.

I am more than likely out. Will be working unless by some miracle one of my other 2 co-workers volunteers to work for me. Plus I need to get the car prepped for Sunday AutoX in Shawano.

I just realized this is Northwoods Shelby Club, used to do this track weekend and usually cruise up there for half a day to watch even though I hardly know anybody there anymore.

Is this drive open to non BMWs?  If it's 95 and humid like now, might take the 911 because it has a/c.

Later,
Wally

p.s. I verified it don't cost nuttin' to get in and spectate.

p.p.s Also verified my old track car ('86 Mustang SVO) will not be running there this year
