Love the day and night track rental. Does that double the cost? If it came down to it I bet some folks wouldnt mind pitching in a little extra to make it happen. Keep us posted on fund raising and sponsorship support.

I used to help with hunting related banquets and one thing we did was to put packages together of donated items or services and then sell raffle tickets. Not every potential sponsor can pony up cash but a lot of them might be willing to donate items or services. Have someone type up a program and list the donors in there so they get a little name recognition. I'll shut up now before I get volunteered

Also love the fastest 16 idea. Its the best way to run it even if there are a few lopsided races in round one.
