I think there is a $10 grounds entrance fee to get into the track.

Looks like it'll be a wet one gents. As long as it doesn't rain like at Redline time attack a few years ago should be fine haha!

I rented a garage bay so I'll be parked in there. I have no pop up tent or shelter so I ponied up the $60 for the bay. Come hang out!

What groups are you guys signed up for? I signed up for group B. Glad I did that now since I'm running on A048's. Not a great wet tire but its all I've got.

See you guys tomorrow!

Thanks! The sessions were a little short and the track was a little spooky but still.... loads of fun! I'll post up a little video footage when I have a chance to edit it!

It was fun watching the Bimmers drift and driving in the variety of surface conditions was good experience, but I much prefer actual timed autocross events. Even though you get less runs and have to work more, the competition and ability to gauge what techniques/settings are yielding the fastest times is where I derive most of the fun. Great beginners event though!

fun day, good to meet you guys. Can't wait to see your vids! I'll post mine up also once i can offload them. Glad I could drive with you guys a couple sessions later in the day.

Those drifting bimmers were fun to watch, especially that black e92 m3.

Didn't take too many pics, here's one. More vids to come.

Well I'm a total AV noob and a youtube noob but here's a quick vid of a lap on track in the afternoon sessions.
