I went twice last year to the last HPDE days. One with the Z Car club of OK for Midwest Z Fest (dismal turnout with 9 cars) and another for a groupon (lots of cars and other makes as well). Very well organized and super friendly. It's hard on brakes though, so make sure you're 100% on pads/rotors and you need race brake fluid. Most of the stock brake fluid guys boiled. You may have all this already.
You want to check the Highs Speed Touring Series. There's a driver education class to attend and a membership fee. After that, I think it's $100 per event and they are the last weekend of each month. Email

even safer place for our drivers.
