I'm copying this post from another forum (8th gen civic). I registered myself already. You'll need to bring a helmet as I don't know that loaners are available.
From reading around a bit, I don't believe that the price is firm. I think it goes up if there are no shows as the cost of the track rental is firm. Please don't register if you aren't going to show.
Also, if you want to meet me in Ocala before heading up that is fine. Just let me know.

So the next road course meet here at Gainesville is July 19th. They limit the slots to only 20 cars and there are usually a few who don't show up. You can get more runs than your car can handle. You just run continuously. I usually go 4-5 laps at a time before pulling into the pit area to let the brakes and turbo cool down a bit.
Oh also some of the local guys came out last time and I raced their cars around too. The cost covers the driver. They don't care what or how many cars you drive.
Cost is usually about $85, which as some of you may know is hella cheap for a road course with this limited amount of cars on the track.
It's real easy to get there. In fact it's right near my house so we can meet up near my place before rolling out to the track.

WHAT TO BRING: Helmet. Cooler with drinks and food would be nice too.
You get up to some high speeds on the straights. Come see what the car and you are capable of. I've been out there without any brake work at all and it's not really an issue. I'd just go 4 laps then do one cool down lap then pull off and let the car cool for a few minutes.
As of right now there are only 8 out of 20 slots available! Don't miss out! This isn't auto-x!
