Eurowerx - Southeasts Largest Euro Event

[Tranz]

http://gforcemotorworks.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/eurowerx_registration.jpg

We are very excited to announce EuroWerx. The gathering of fine European automotive craftsmanship in one location, the ability to get up close to those super exotics that you've just seen in a magazine. Hang out with friends or test your skills on the track. This event will be for you.

We have also partnered with Traqmate to bring in car video recording and telemetry data acquisition for those who want it. We also just secured Universal Studios as a Premiere Partner, offering Eurowerx attendees extreme discounts on park tickets. How does $49 for a one day, one park ticket sound? They'll normally over $70!

Show up on Friday and hang out with us, friends, sponsors and vendors at the cocktail reception at the Four Points Sheraton.
Hang out for a Mexican Buffet Dinner being held on Saturday evening at the Sheraton.

We have so much planned, there is something to do for everyone.

Yes, you can come and camp. We will provide overnight security so there is nothing to worry about. Just contact us if you have further questions. Please be aware this is a fun event and we can NOT have dogs, snakes or anything else that might freak someone else out. Play it smart and think about it first.

Sorry to be so hard but it’s safety for everyone involved.

You will have to deal with them. Once again this goes back to safety for attendees and their families, our sponsors, our vendors and everyone else included.

If the car I will be using is undecided, what do I do? Also, since I am 17 will you have forms for my parents to sign? Thanks.

[JCapelo]

This looks like fun.

[1clean335i]

This looks like fun.
+1

[pyro]

yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[LDadrenaline]

will probably sign up this weekend. whats the deal with instructors, do they also have to pay?

also how many run groups will there be? guaranteed only one student per instructor? how many sessions will each group get?

[RiegerMti]

Let's do it!! We can have a nice little drive on the way there too!!! and my car should be done by then!!! Sound GOOD!!????</p>

[Alagonmotors]

count me in

[Tranz]

Yes, if your under 18 then you'll need to get the waiver signed by a parent or guardian. Once you register a complete "Event Packet" in PSF format is made available for you with all the information and forms you need.
Instructors do not have to pay and if you have the skills and racing background please contact me directly.

Instructor training will be held between 7am - 8am on Sunday. We would like people to arrive on Sat for tech inspections but we know it might not be possible. We can do them on Sunday but will done based on schedules.

Our lead instructor is Rich Tonoltson from Sun Coast Porsche Club. Overall structure might change slightly but I don't see it going off n a big way.

Each session will be 30 minutes with only 20 cars on the track during each session. When someone signs up they are signing up for one session. If someone wants to run in multiple sessions then a discount will be given on the second session. Sessions can be back-to-back for a total of 1hr on the track. That's a lot of time really.

If there is anything I left out or can answer for anyone please feel free to contact me.

I thought the original plan was like 2-3 hours of track time. So now it is $175 for one 30 minute session?

[90QBl3wByYou]

Awsome.I should be ready to rock.And have my new coil overs/brakes by then and as well as pushing 300hp.

This outa be a intresting day for everyone.

Can't wait!

[racer m]

this instresting fun... :alright:

[Tranz]

Track time was designed by myself and tried to incorporate the best experience for the money. I may have fallen short on this and am looking at revising the track time slot portion. I will get with my head instructor and formulate something that works for everyone.

[PlayerN07]

Hmmm, I am interested. Would like to get a large group to trek down with tho...

[london07]

will there be beer allowed? (as long as youre not driving obviously)

[LDadrenaline]

no, its not a club thing

track rules specify no alcohol on location

[Alagonmotors]

ya 175 is kinda expensive for half an hour. thats usually the price for like 2 or 3 hours.

[Tranz]

**HUGE UPDATE!!**

I made a HUGE mistake in the track pricing. Now that it was brought to my attention I have made the change in the original posting.

The cost for your first 30 minute session will only be $80 not $175. Each session that you want to pick up after that will only be $70. The first 30 people that register get a FREE 30 minute session bringing your total track time to an hour.

I have also reduced the cost of New Driver Training / Instructor to $130 from $175.
I also reduced the cost of the in-car camera by 50% to just $40

Designing and event this large isnt easy and mistakes are made. I was insane for a short time, got some slapping around and have come to my senses.

If anyone has any questions please let me know.

[Tranz]

Anymore feedback? I would have thought a lot more of you guys would want to come out. The feeler thread got a lot of attention.

[Tranz]

Yeah, no alcohol. We want people to have fun and when you let beer or other stuff in then your just asking for issues.

We still have some slots open for the first 30 people that register. You'll get an hour for the price of a regular session.

AWD dyno runs will be $80 per car. You get 3 runs, video dvd of your car on the runs and a complete data cd with all the data collected.

[Tranz]

**IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT**

Eurowerx might become a 1 day event. Why?

We worked very hard to bring the community an event that everyone says the love the format. This has taken a vast amount of time and resources.

We need a specific number of people to register for the track event. This MUST take place this month. We are far short of the number of people needed and if we don't get more people to register we will be forced to cancel the event for Sunday and the track event that goes along with it.

We currently have more non-euro cars registered then euro. Something I don't understand. We made the price extremely cost effective for everyone to take place in. We designed enough run groups that allows people to have options throughout the day. We've lined up some top name companies to be at the event.

The only thing we haven't done is make it totally free, something it seems everyone will turn out for.

So, you, as the community asked for this type of event and we have brought it to you. We can't do anymore. The track portion of the event is in your hands.

[Tranz]

Sorry, insanity

[Tranz]

We only have 8 slots left for the first 30 people who would get a free extra session. If you were on the fence you might want to think about registering soon to get in on the deal.

[carguy101]

hmm if i only had a car let me see what i can do

[carguy101]

are there any requirements the cars have to have? i.e. roll cages, or is it pretty much run what you brung that has to pass tech?

[Tranz]

Only needs a roll bar if it's a convert. Otherwise it has to pass tech inspection.

[carguy101]

damn i guess im out :(

[OJwerks]

have u posted this in other more active forums ???

e46fanatics.com
e90post.com
mbworld.org
vwvortex.com

to name a few... ??? you will get TONS more feedback

[Tranz]

Vortex is sad really. Everyone loves to talk about the new turbo setup they have but non of them will really run their car on a track.

Feel free to post it up on as many forums as you would like.

[LDadrenaline]

ha, that seems to be the norm on most forums. you have no idea how many people are like "im a baller i have 500whp on a street car"

[M5Beast]

Is there a sound event for exhaust :-P lol

[pcbootleger]

I wish I had more time off to do this. Sad that more Euro cars are not attending. I guess people are just used to the events of Chin Motorsports and NASA and their good instructors.

[Tranz]

PC, we would be using instructors that instruct for NASA, SCCA, PBOC etc.

BTW, the guys over at Royal said that you got a used VR6 when you got it replaced. I saw the 4 stripped oil pan bolts?

[MiamiRacer7]

I'm in... Last time I ran this track, it was with Skip Barber.. this should be awesome.

[GRNDHOG]

I'm interested in the Dyno. How do I go about signing up for that?


btw, I'm also posting this on Audiforums

[LutzPerformance]

is their a deadline for registration

[Casco]

****************************Announcement********** ********
Eurowerx 2008 had to be cancel due to the following:
1. For the track event, Not enough register drivers and unexpected additional cost
2. SunCoast Porsche Club back out on our agreement to share the venue on the 31st for our show & shine. The track calls us and states that the club has decided to not allow us to be there on Saturday. This was a huge
blow and a shock! It would be to anyone thinking that had an agreement that was already
arranged.
Needless to say we are very disappointed on all the above specially on the lack of registration in the euro community :banghead:
Most of our sponsors would like to see us move the event to different location if possible. We are looking at that option, but it will not be Eurowerx but a huge GTG somewhere in Central florida, since Team Dynogo wants to bring to their dyno rig a park is out of the question; where ever it is you'll be able to dyno your ride and have a good time. Aynone that did register for the track event will receive a refund ASAP.
Notes: This event will happen in 2009, you can be sure of that.

[LDadrenaline]

Just to clear the air before Suncoast PCAs reputation gets hit....

The deal was that if you had enough drivers you would give PCA $6k to be allowed access to the back paddock area on saturday. Months in advance, they suspected you would not have enough money to come through, but they waited until the agreed upon date to let you come through with the money. Not enough drivers registered so you couldnt pay.... That was not PCAs fault.

I don't know where you get that info from, but we had our $6k to paid for the back paddock area a month prior to the event when they back out on the agreement. Saturday had nothing to do with registered drivers as it was a show and shine day for us.

So let's be clear
