40 cars @ $300. per
35 cars @ $343. per
30 cars @ $400. per
25 cars @ $480. per
etc.....

We shouldn't have a problem finding enough experienced corner workers and this cost should cover track insurance. If the idea is to have a complete full track day, then we can make it happen on Tuesday the 18th prior to the commencement of the Convention. This way, we bend zero rules and have a separate ALFA event. that would conveniantly coincide with a huge Alfa get-together party.
Just remember that doing a wheel to wheel event will be very sticky on the day of the TT. Russ Neely (the comp chiar) is very sensitive to this.

If you can define the end of the TT event, and start a new event, with contract, insurance, sanction, ect, etc. I'm sure we can work something out. Just start working on this NOW if you really want to wheel to wheel.

(for the racers, I think it's a great idea, BTW- always wanted to do an Alfa Cup like they do in England).
