May not be the most accurate but worth a try.

I tried one, it was completely off on my phone!

I think I'm safe tho, I run a all factory exhaust on my v6 with the npp valves open

Probably take me 2-3 sessions just to get "used" to the track and what I'm willing and/or allowed to do with my car on it.

Most people (especially if you haven't had the pleasure before), don't appreciate how taxing a track day is. 4-5 sessions is enough to tire someone out for a day, and we've got 6 on the schedule.

PLENTY of driving time.

I ran NCM last year, my car has LT headers, no cats, Magnaflow 3" Competition exhaust with mufflers, I also have cut outs, I tried one lap with the cutouts open and I was flagged, I closed the cutouts and was able to continue running

The West Course is more track that most can handle. A 3 mile course is crazy, but that's what everyone always wants.

I'm just glad I'm not one of those UPSET people.

I've never done West course but I'm sure it will be fun, but if I can choose between full course and half course, I'll definitely want full course.

20 minute sessions are perfect. I went to a few events that had 'complete open track' so I could go out as often as I want and stay out as long as I want. After 30 minutes on one session, it wasn't as fun any more.

This event got me all pumped up for track days but I have 2 1/2 more months of wait before track season starts in Michigan....
