I was all bummed I didn't get to any track days this year and was just browsing the various organisers and... Speedtrialusa.com have a weekend track event Dec 11th and 12th. Woowhoo.. signed up! This will be my first.

So who else is up for it? Duc it's a weekend!!!

I guess I need to get myself a helmet or will my motorbike helmet be ok, advice please.

You should sign up for the Performance Driving Clinic Dec 18th at ButtonWillow. I got my wife and I plus Duc and his wife going

Hey Ashley, I have an extra SA rated helmet you can use.

I warn you... it's SPA yellow! (and it has stickers that say things like "been there, wrecked that" and "no fear - no joke")

If you can stand the embarrassment, you're welcome to use it.

Usually, a motorcycle helmet is allowed for your first event, but check with your host.

BTW, I strongly reccomend the BW driving clinic. It's good for drivers of all skill levels, and I may be going to this one for a refresher. (hmmm... which car??? )

Anything coming up sooner? I just came from a track day at Spring Mountain (Parhump, NV) this past weekend and had a blast with the S2K. I was hoping to catch another track day at Streets sometime in November, however, I'm not completely against going again in December.

This car is seriously more fun to track than the Supra. (and not to mention cheaper )

Bring Lester

As for bringing Lester... I'm not sure... the Spa is definitely faster. (I'd put a in here, but I'm serious; the Spa IS faster! Handles better too...)

Yeah the Spa handles Great Drew especially with those R compounds on it. I am looking at buying this s2k out in virginia for 19,500 with hardtop and 50k on the odometer what do you think about the price for it its an 02 and its blue/blue here's the link to the thread S2k for 19,500 let me know if I should take it or keep searching for something local... Thanks for any advice Drew. I hope I can get an S before the the clinic at buttonwillow because I'd like to attend it that is if I'm not in Hawaii during that time.

I'm in Dec 11th! 3rd track day. Helmet is depreciating. Driver is appreciating S2000 - I have a f-ing sports car so I'm sporting.

Just give it some time, you'll convert to the DARKSIDE and then you'll see everything in a hole new perspective, well actually you wont see anything because you'll be going too damn fast
