A list like this? Find a car track day in NorCal

If you're just starting with HPDE I can highly recommend Hooked on Driving! I'd say it's probably the best if you're starting. Much much less crowded then NASA, 5 sessions vs 4. Yeah, it's 100+ more for a track day but it's worth it IMHO. Great instructors!

+1 for NCRC also!

Two crashes? That's unheard of. Green, yellow or red group?

oh man it was amazing! Had a great weekend.


Crash was an Evo9 carrying too much speed through Turns 8 and 8a and lifted off while turning and lost rear traction, went 90 degrees and a closely following Porsche 944 T-boned the Evo.

I had my GoPro going for most the weekend so I'll post vids once I upload to youtube.

I'd like to get Laguna under my belt sometime this year. But it'll have to wait..

It was awesome giving the V8s a run for their money most of them could only get me on the straights.
