As far as I know, it costs $1k to reserve the track for a lap, regardless of how many people are in your group. I have a friend who used to own an Indycar team and he owed me a favor. We had a guided tour of the museum, the track, the basement(which houses the Holman-George family's personal collection), and a lap on the track. We were given a few guidelines. We couldn't pass the pace vehicle(big surprise), could take as long as we wanted, and were to "try" and keep our speeds below 150(which feels like 50 on there). After that, we took a trip to brown county, but the track time absolutely made everything else boring. I had many people that have financial means to do anything(one had a bachelor party at Hockenheim, Nurburgring, and Monaco), and it was pretty awesome to see their faces when we saw the basement and after the lap because that day was something they couldn't spend any amount of money to duplicate.
