Hope you have a good time.
Several points here.
The full track is 2.866 miles.
This specific is not covered by SCCA insurance. The track itself
uses a different company.
At a previous similar event for Porsche owners the track manager
requested the chance to drive a Porsche GT3R, a legendary German Cup car,
and crashed it in the chicane between Turns 12 and 13. The generous car
owner, who was riding as a passenger, was out one Porsche and the track
manager spent the next several weeks in a Chico hospital recovering from
bruises and a punctured lung, etc.
Moral: Don't let anybody else drive your car, especially the track
manager.
When the Porsche owner requested reimbursement for his lost car,
the track manager declined to pay anything.
Moral: Don't let anybody else drive your car.
