Crowded...ther are about 15 people going, you can get in about 300 passes between 10 and 4 if you'de lke. The Street Racing at night gets pretty crowded, but most of us leave anyway after we watch al the cars come in, we're too spoiled after not waiting in line all day.
It's a great place to learn and get tips, there will be helpful people there. I'm hoping to kock off a 9 second RX-7...we'll see.

BSD is a cool place to go in the middle of nowhere. It's very nostalgic. If my T/A is up and running by then I'll go.

Sounds like fun. I'd bring my GTO if I weren't trying to sell it (my luck, I'd bust it).

The price is $40 per session.
You can come 10-4 for $80 or 10-1 or 1-4 for $40
