In Car coaching is included for first timers on track

Check out the Hookedondriving.com website. Several dates at Sonoma and Laguna Seca this year. First time attendees get free in car coaching at either track for the first day. Drive these iconic tracks.....A "Camaros at the Corkscrew"gtg would be a great reason to go to Monterey.

I got this email from hookedondriving so i told them i would get the word out.They have track days all over the country


Hi Mark…it was very nice to meet you at Laguna on Friday. You looked to be handling the track very well in your Camaro. I did not get a chance to talk to you at the end of the day but did want to follow up with the brief conversation we had about what HOD can do to get the Camaro groups on track more often.

As I mentioned we see a lot of Mustangs (Boss, GT, Roush, Shelby, etc) but rarely a Camaro. I would love to contact anyone or group that might have some interest in putting together a Camaro day at Laguna…."Camaro's at the Corkscrew". Any suggestions or guidance would be appreciated.

Hope you enjoyed your day with HOD and we are looking forward to seeing you again.

Yea, assuming it is not snowing still and it is above 30ish degrees.

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.

Exactly - forecast is for 45, but I think that is just the average temp for this time of year. A bunch of those Mustang guys are signed up - I will try to hold up my end.
