    So long as they don't have a event on the weekend that is generally true, if they have events planned sometimes the Friday is unavailable as it will be used for their practice

    You are meant to have a spotter (or used to have to)as well but any random guy in the pits will normally sign for that

    ...I was under the impression that a person had to belong to a m/c club to use the track on these days....? I recently had to verify a person as belonging to our club to the man on duty from the car club, before they would let him on the track...
