Do u have to commit to a minimum # of days to 'work' as a TPM coach? What is the typical progression to become a coach? Some day I could see myself becoming a coach provided things keep progressing as well as they have , my hunger for the track continues to grow, and TPM needs help.  |

You know.. you can write track days off as a tax deduction. Just start a fake/race team and call it practise....

To be an A level coach you need to do at least 10 track days a year, and have your bike painted TPM colors.

I deleted everything else I said SORRY ! I thought about it, and it was too sarcastic.

Well we appreciate everything y'all do.... can't say I wouldnt trade places with ya... I'm sure its a little bit cheaper than it is for us... considering some folks probably do more than ten track days a year.
After paying $12 for a shitty lunch at pocono last week... I'm thinking of bringing a hot dog stand/fast food truck to bring to the track and support my habit.... will the raceways allow it?

8 pack of hotdogs, rolls, water, A-treat soda, bag of ice and big bag of chips. Cook the dogs on the George Forman grill and lunch is server. All for about $20. Sometimes we go big and get a box of burgers so we hit the $30 mark. This will feed at 4 people or 2 people over 2 day.

Oh I know how to save money on food at amusement parks (and now track days) Its just that I had a little problem last time. My food supply and cheerleading squad came well after that nice lunch break they gave us.
Considering how many other people were in the cafeteria who didnt know any better to bring food.... I figured I could make money and feed the (track) needy at a fraction of the cost.
heck I'm looking into selling my mother to support my track habit.
