For current members/participants in any group, bring us 5 new participants (membership plus full weekend registration, listing your name in the "sponsor" field) and you will get one free HPDE/TT/roadracing weekend in the future (up to $429 value!) We will also have a year-long competition to see who can bring in the most new participants, with a nice prize TBA.
