Whoopsy:Well, if I can get perhaps 10-14 people's commitment, I can take that to Porsche Canada to have them do a "chartered" Performance Driving Tour, which they host a few sessions a year anyway.
It consists of leaving Vancouver Airport to Whistler overnight, then to a interior resort, Sparkling Hill in Vernon for another night, then heading to Mission Raceway for some track time then back to Vancouver Airport. It will drive through some amazing mountain roads.

If they decided to use our track, it will probably add another night at Ososyoos after Vernon.
Going through Porsche Canada means they will provide all the cars and hospitality involved.
Short list:
1. Whoopsy (our host, he decides guest list and the schedule)
2. Pentium (Porsche cars preferred, Area 27 it's a must for me)
3. Gnil (It is only interesting if we drive on Area 27)
4. DaveGordon
5. bluelines
6. Targa Tim (I'm in if it is free, and I can use my own car)
7. Mithras (Depending on timing I'd be very interested)
8. ?
Who's next?
There is no try. Just do.

I would be interested in a heartbeat but it isn't easy for me to schedule things in advance (family, work...).

More track update, curbs are being painted right now and asphalt is going down August 10, 5 days ahead of schedule.
I am booked to do a music video shoot and a promo video with the 918 on the track around the 24th or so.
Oh, and I have officially approached Porsche Canada to have them incorporate our track for their Performance Driving Tour Vancouver, and had asked for a private session for Rennteam.
Lars997:apias:True. Actually, I suppose it's like painting the baseboard before laying the carpet.
This is exactly how I understood it!
@Nick - do you have any recent pictures?
Don't have anything more recent, but this is from like 2 weeks ago when they start doing the curbs.

Whoopsy:JoeRockhead:Music video? What's that all about? Are you going to have rappers throwing money at the camera and everything?
A secret project
Now i know that when i see a music video with a 918 , i can say i know where the car came from.
PS: So jealous that you guys are planning a private track day !!!
