The direct link to the Summer Camp page is https://www.flyinmiata.com/default/about/summercamp. We haven't set a date for opening registration yet as we're still nailing down the last couple of details.

Keith,

Is there a photo gallery/event wrap up? I'm trying to convince my wife about taking a short vacation to include this years SummerCamp (2023) and could use some advertising  assistance.

Right, that page was for 2022 and is gone. I haven't put together a Summer Camp page for 2023 yet, but I can tell you the dates are June 9-11.

I don't think I have a nice wrap-up gallery available, I'll try to get some put together.

There will be a line. 

And if you're lucky, one of our customers will bring his breathtaking 7 build so you can ask him :)

Ooh, this one?  Fantastic car!

Keith, what are the chances of being back on the track for 2023?

That car is one of those that gets better the longer and closer you look. Amazing work.
 

We are waiting for the insurance for the track. Fingers crossed. We should have had it by now, but you know what insurance companies can be like.

Might have to fix the a/c in my miata so it can blow up on track in CO!

I'm not sure I will have a running Miata by then, but maybe I will rent one. 
 

My daughter is in college in CO, so this is a real possible.

FM Summer Camp was one of the first car events my wife attended.  It was also the first place she drove a car on a track.  She has enjoyed it a lot over the years, and there's usually plenty to do for everyone.  It's a great event and lots of fun!

Here's some pics from Summer Camp over the years...
