***Absolutely not a problem at all. We love sharing the track with other
cars, and have had outstanding success in the past. We've hosted Corvettes,
Vipers, S2000s, you name it, we've probably seen it. We just like it to be
a Miata group of enthusiasts (not a club) hosting an event. It's tons of
fun!

***Rollbars are required for convertible vehicles that do not have OEM
standard protection already installed. If you have a Miata, then yes,
you'll need a rollbar with four points affixed to the frame of the car
(i.e., no style bars). I might have a bar for you, though.

***You will need to come down with a sudden case of the flu, my friend, if
you wanna reap the rewards of your entry fees. The first car out is at 9AM
and the track is open for sessions until 5PM. West Sacramento is between an
hour and a half and two hours, depending on your speed (maybe I should loan
you my radar detector . . .). Yup . . . I'd be making puking sounds in the
men's room if I was you . . . lol.
