John -
Telling me that you feel that starting at 7:00am is "over the top" serves
no earthly purpose. I am not one of the event coordinators, nor am I one
of the people in charge. I didn't even write the portion of the message
that you quoted. All I did was pass on a message that I received from the
company putting this on. I assume that they know what they're doing -
after all, that's what they're paid to do. As far as I know, they've held
events at Laguna Seca before, they've worked with a number of venues that
have sound restrictions, they've been in contact with the people managing
the Laguna Seca property, etc.
