Default Track Days

Which groups do track days? not auto-x. Anyone belong to the a group that does track days in the houston area? Motorsports ranch is OK, but it's kind of far. Any info would be helpful. I used to do track days with the BMW club in Portland.

On a somewhat related note I have a craftsman aluminum racing jack. It was in storage and won't really pump up and down anymore. Do you think I just need to put new hydraulic fluid in it? Can you just take them to sears and have someone look at it? Thanks.

The closest road course to Houston is TWS, located in College Station, about 70 miles from Spring. We usually run the 2.9 mile, 15 turn configuration...it's awesome, and fast! www.texasworldspeedway.com.

A group from this forum is planning on doing an event there on Oct. 22/23, with The Drivers Edge, www.thedriversedge.net

There are other organizations that host events at TWS as well:

Motorsports Club - www.texasworldspeedway.com
LSRPCA - www.lsrpca.com
BMWCCA - www.houston-bmwcca.com

A couple of us on here (maybe more) are Instructors for these events, so if you have any specific questions, feel free to ask.

What part of Spring are you in, I've probably seen you

That gives me some time to get my car ready. What is the cost? What kind of groups run. I would probably run in the novice group as this would by my first event in 1 1/2 years.
