Hey John,

How do you get to drive on an Adrenaline Racing Track Day? I see it is for approved drivers only... my guess is you have to be good to do one of their track days? What is the cost?

Just in case you didn't know, I'm John Grant! LMAO!!! JK, I have a lot of track time, I got my stamp for novice racing 3 years ago i just never had the money to actually race. Their track days I think are around $250-280. Their days are more of test and tune days than a track school. More track time, and no novice drivers.

John, I know who you are! I was asking for me. I am not sure if I would qualify to drive on this. I am intermediate so was wondering if that was good enough or if I had to be your caliber of driver?? But, seeing as my car is "similar" to yours I think I might pass!

I am looking for low profile jack stands... Something that starts around 7-8". All the jack stands I am finding start @ 11 5/8" I have a set of these already but my low profile jack cannot lift the car high enough to utilize these. I checked sears and harbor freight. Any suggestions?

The 11" were the smallest I could find, They work for me but Im at stock ride height Good luck

Found this @ amazon http://www.amazon.com/Torin-Profile-Servic...8/dp/B000HD8B3S

Jack goes as low as 3"
stands goes as low as 10"


Good luck

I think those dimensions are for the Jack and not the stands? I know they make aluminum ones just can't locate them...
