I heard about something like this. This gives me another reason I wished I was 21.

I hope they don't mean free entry in the test-n-tunes because I had to wait 2 hours in line and only got one shitty run in...to me that's not worth $1000+

None the less this sounds pretty cool but I'll be out of town that weekend. Good luck to whoever competes

Great News. Our insurance carrier is allowing anyone 18 years old or older to participate in our ZMax Autocross Series. Come test your skills racing the autocross course or Ferrari Slalom starting at $40 for 10 hours of entertainment. Get a group of thirty together for a full entry fee (8 runs and prizes) of $175 ($75off). There will be a DJ playing music all day and a car corral for you to show off the S2000s. The ZMax lot is phenomenal and the supercars even better.

Come play with us. You will not be disappointed.

I'm going to get into this but it has to wait for my GM stock to get back to where it was 10 months ago.

Good luck with that Lee. I just saw a talking head on TV say that GM should NOT make the Camaro because it's fuel economy wasn't good enough. Just think how exciting cars are going to be and how much money they will make when the government designs all of them

Makes me want to take care of the S even more.

One more week guys. Would love to see a lot of S2000s out there in the car corral. Hang out with your friends, listen to music (DJ), and watch the supercars tear up the autocross course. Entry fee is $40 which includes admission to the event for you and your friends. Full entry is $250 which gets you at least 8 hot timed laps and a chance at the great prizes. Test drives, Tours, and a trip to the Tail of the Dragon.

See you there....SupercarSensation.com

Thanks guys.. Just trying to keep this novel company going in a tough economy.
