That's sounds great!  The only suggestion I would have is this.  I think
most people would prefer to have at least a couple of separate shots at it.
I wouldn't structure the event so that if you spin or screw up really bad
one time, your done for the day.  The best bet (IMHO) is to give them at
least 2 separate runs/laps/sets of laps, whatever there is time for.
