Great idea but doesn't really fly does it ???

I suggested putting that as an option because track days seem to work on commitment - as shown by TA5. It seems to me that within the DSC there are those who may well be prepared to commit (as oppose to being committed) - so you ask them for 50% upfront. That covers your deposits as well as spreading the cost of the trip. There is a trust there that you wouldn't normally give to an external service provider.
Reserving hotel rooms are easy enough on line, I am sure a block booking would not be too difficult.
This is all obviously only off the top of my head, but if the majority do want vote for the 'in-house' option as it were, then surely its worth a look?
