I'm down for dinner as long as I get in town when I'm hoping to be. I'll be bringing my dad and gf along this weekend as well. My dad use to do the motorcycle thing. I took him out with me last weekend during a session and I had to bring him back in about halfway through because he was getting sick... haha.
I know what you mean about the $30. It is absolutely ridiculous IMO. I mean come on... $30... really? To watch amateurs go around the track. Here is the info. about it though in this thread:

Seems like if you ride in with someone though you could get in for $10. The truck is full but maybe Chris could give you a ride in or one of us could drive out and meet you some where and bring you in.
