Here's some information regarding the upcoming weekend at Pikes Peak International Raceway:

• PPIR is running a Test and Tune day on Friday from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. with a lunch break from 12:00-1:00. The cost is $150 for a full day or $100 for a half day which can be paid at the main gate. Half day is only for the afternoon session and will be on sale starting at noon. An ambulance will be on site and the MRA will have its air fence set up. For more info: http://www.ppir.com/event/7
• Gates will open Thursday night at 7:00pm and close at 11:00pm. They will reopen Friday morning at 7:00am. There is no charge to camp. Bathrooms and showers will also be open.
• If you have a garage rental through the MRA for Saturday and Sunday and wish to move in on Friday, there will be a cost of $25 per bike. Garages will not be open Thursday night.
• RV Hookups are available on a first come first serve basis and are $50 for the weekend. Please do not park in an RV space unless you have paid for an RV power tag at the gate. There will also be 110amp hookups for $25.
• The MRA will open Friday Evening Tech 30 minutes after the track goes cold and it will close at approximately 7:00pm. This is only available for racers that have preregistered and paid. 2015 MRA Rulebooks and stickers will be available at Tech. Saturday morning Tech opens at 6:30am.
• The race day office will open on Friday evening at some point after the track goes cold. An announcement will be made over the PA system. The office will open again at 6:30 am on Saturday and Sunday. If you did not preregister and pay for your races by Monday, 9/14, or would like to drop or add classes, you will need to see the MRA Office Staff.
• The race day office will close at 10:15 Saturday morning so that grids for sprint races can be completed. We ask that if you need assistance after this time, please contact an MRA Board Member in the paddock.
• Race Day Schedules and Contingency forms will be available in the Race Day Office.
• The rider meetings will start at 7:30 am each morning. Attendance is mandatory for all competitors. Failure to attend the rider meetings will result in a $50 fine for the first offense.
• Live timing and scoring is available for all races via the Race Monitor App on mobile devices and online at http://www.mra-racing.org/racers/live-timing/
• It's Corner Worker Appreciation Day on Saturday. We can't race without the Corner Workers, Score Keepers and Ambulance Staff! It's that time of year where you show your appreciation to YOUR corner workers for their hard work and dedication to the MRA so all of you are able to race.
• Dunlop will be paying double contingency for this weekend’s races to make up for the Round 1 cancellation!
• Short Stop will be providing concessions 7am-2pm starting on Friday through Sunday.

Don't forget to charge your transponders!

Do you know if we have to pay $25 per bike to setup everything in the garages on Friday evening after the track day is over?

I would say probably not but they have not told us what time they will be available for those that are not paying to occupy them during the Friday Test and Tune day.
