Bandimere Opening Day April 23rd and/or 24th

Hey Colorado folks,
Mark your calendars for Bandimere on either Saturday April 23rd or Sunday April 24th (weather permitting) for the opening day.

These are typically great for nicer weather, (read reduced heat soak) and a good amount of runs. We have been going for the past several years on opening day and it's always fun.

2022 schedule

Reply here if you can make it.

Helmets typically required if you run 13.xxx and quicker. Snell 2010's no longer valid.

I went, was super windy with an unfortunate headwind. Didn't break 11's.

My best was 11.04@124

Ran some MT Street ET's all around and had some insane 60' times. 1.5x about 6 straight times.

I guess the actual question was "what's your setup"?

Questions from someone that's never been to Bandimere:

- Admission cost if just being an spectator?
- Admission cost if participating?
- If participating, what prep'ing is involved in car?
-- What prep'ing is involved with driver?
- Anything else I should know?

What are some of the times, and with what set ups, you've got at Bandimere?

So I went to the website and I must say that it is not very intuitive for first timers; there must be dozens and dozens of different series, some of which are very similar.

But one note that stood up from the rules in each street series that I checked said:

"* Must have street-legal, DOT approved tires and mufflers. No electronics or trans brakes. Starting line rev limiter prohibited."

Question on this:

- Will they check the exhaust system for DOT compliance?
- Is launch control not allowed? (launch control = rev. limiter, right?)

Also, I did find out that admission for participants range around $40, spectators $17, children under 12 are free.
