    AZR is extending an invitation to join us at IMR for a fun day at an incredible facility. We are looking for ~15 more participants to meet our price point of $150 per entry so please act fast. Inde is getting close to filling it's membership quota and once that day comes it will be highly unlikely to find events like this.

    We will limit the event to 32 cars and we will have 4 run groups of 8 cars ranging from beginner/novice/intermediate/expert so all experience levels are welcome. There will be a few of us available to provide instruction for first-timers if desired.

    This is not a race event and most cars will be street cars so passing in all groups except Expert will be on the main straight with a "point-by". If all participants in Expert agree then passing will be allowed anywhere on track but will still require a "point-by".

    The facility and track are both top-notch and we will have full access to all amenities including the grill and large air-conditioned kitchen. Bathrooms are brick and mortar (not outhouses) and there is plenty of tables under shade as well as the air-conditioned lounge area with a view of the track. The road is paved now so no need to deal with the washboardy dirt any longer.

    Gates open at 7am with cars on track at 9am. There will be a mandatory driver meeting at 8:30. If you want to attend but can't make the meeting please contact me to work something out.

    There will be a $10 entry fee for adult spectators. Ride-alongs are allowed but all persons on track must wear a helmet.

    Please feel free to call or email me with any questions or concerns.

    Thank you

    We have members that are amateur photographers that provide free photos to our other members. You're welcome to come out to events and shoot but we don't want people charging for pictures that aren't buying a photog pass from the track. Nobody makes money from these events at Inde except the track, it's put on by the members for the members and all costs are divided evenly.

    The track owners said the last few years they saw high 80s to low 90s in early June, not too bad IMO. There is plenty of shade and air-conditioned buildings to hide out in.

    The track is by far a great track to drive. 21 turns 2 blind, 2200 ft long straight and the slight right first turn at 100+ was awesome.
