Zoom-Fest 2010 - Talladega Grand Prix, July 17th and 18th
 

After considering all the possibilities and potential growth of Zoom-Fest in the future we have decided for 2010 to change things up a bit.

This is to announce Zoom-Fest 2010 will now be a full track day with "Time Attack" event!

The Zoom-Fest Time Attack will be held July 17th-18th 2010, at Talladega Grand Prix in Talladega, Alabama. Talladega Gran Prix Raceway is a 1.4 mile road course with ample room to continue the Zoom-Fest car show, swap meet, awards and outdoor movie tradition with the addition of a open track day and Time Attack attraction. We, as a group, will take over the entire facility from 7AM Sat morning till 10AM Sunday morning. Anyone with any level of driving experience is welcomed. Everyone will be fully covered by full motorsports insurance for the entire visit.

Zoom-Fest Time Attack is open to all Mazda or Mazda powered vehicles. There will concession open on the grounds, professional run course and corner workers, ambulance on duty as well as free camping.

The Time Attack will be open to the first 40 cars on a first come first served basis. The Zoom-Fest event is open to any number of participants.

I was looking forward to road atlanta..... :)

COOL! I'm there!

I just wished I had my 8 to track with..

Phil.. Billy might let you take his new one around the track if you ask really nice LOL I just hope I have the fd ready.. Man that's gonna be fun!

Several of us from the middle Tennessee area are planning on going. Sounds like a lot of fun

I may get you to bedazzle my helmet :)

Billy, would you let me take your 8 if I bring my own wheels and tires to put on? :)

Too early to tell what stage it will be at. :)

definetly wanna go what are the requirements to drive, helmet, cage harness?

I had alot of fun at Zoomfest last year. As much of a Road Atlanta junkie that I am, I am glad to see it move to TGPR. It's more track time for everyone and I think it will be much more user friendly for all. I will most likely be there given the Army doesn't have me doing something that weekend.

As for the Time Attack, I see there are no classes. Any stipulations on the cars? Obviously an RX something, but the reason I ask is because I will most likely be bringing my V8 FD. I know there are plenty of rotaries that are faster than me though, so it shouldn't be an issue, right? :D

i think i can do that... pretty good idea actually

In general all you need is a helmet. This FAQ will answer all your questions:

Yes, it was hard for us to move it away from our "home track" but we really wanted to ensure the track time and future growth.

The event is open to any Mazda or Mazda powered vehicle. We will have 4 groups for the track day. A-D, grouped by experience level and level of modifications. I will work on a classing structure for the time attack over the next month.

So I am trying to figure out how this goes...

$20 lets me hang out, but if I want to run the track, at all, it is another $150, and that is only if I am one of the first 40 to sign up?

Help me Billy!

The standard Zoom-Fest ticket is $20. No limit on sales.
The Track day ticket is $150 (includes the $20 standard ticket). Only 40 spots will be sold.

In for the track day. Is there somewhere we can see how many are signed up for the track day?
