Just signed up. I'll apologize in advance for bringing my daily driver and probably getting in everyone's way, but I'll just be there to learn this time.

The ONLY way you could get in someones way is if you don't follow the track rules & etticate that you will be told ther,e and signing up for a class/group beyond your abilities.

If you do what you are supposed to & people complain, then I guess they should have signed up for a racing school, which non of this is.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT ANYONE OR ANYTHING BUT WHAT THE INSTRUCTOR TELLS YOU. learn your your abilities, the track lines, braking points, etc. SMOOTH IS FAST.

First timers. Very cool. You are about experience something so rewarding, but can't yet imagine.

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same.
Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different.
I can't wait for my next
Track fix.

There is "Choice Hotel" I think it is a Comfort Suites right next door. That is where I am staying.

Done.^^

Now all I have to do is rebuild the front brakes and I am ready to go. (Yes I have the parts I just need to find the time)

I took my car apart in anticipation of parts that were to arrive this week that are now not arriving until next week. Now I won't have my car this weekend.

I am thinking about getting Pedders camber adjuster plates, but I spent a ton of money on the car this winter on brakes, rotors, tires & wheels

I am in the same boat. I spent a ton and tried to get 295 PSS to fit but could not without camber plates. So back they went and had to get 285's since CP's were not in the budget. I had already spent too much damn money. But, ya know, you can not take it with you. Maybe next year.
