Just FYI - Saturday 9/24 is the same day as the Run to The Hills VII Autocross at Smokies Stadium. Not that these events cater to the same clientel, but there will be 2 autocross events in the area on the same day.

If there is a provision to just do one day of the ETR event, that will be great. I'm planning on running RTTH on Saturday, ETR on Sunday if the car is running and co-operates.

I don't think that would be a problem, as these are seemingly seperate events.

Personally, it looks like all my Saturdays are tied up this fall.

10 hours of driving.
divide by 2 since you'd only make one trip: 5.
averaging 65 mph at 5 hours: 325 miles
divide by 30 (mpg estimate of hwy+ax miles): 10.83 gallons of gas
times gas prices @3.80+ for premium: $41.16

Get a hotel for the same cost and save yourself the hassle!
