For those who wonder what Geoff is referencing, everyone (including Instructors) has to wear long pants during our OTD sessions.
When it's 90+ degrees out, wearing scrub bottoms over your shorts are a quick and easy way to comply with the regs.......and also drop trou at the drop of a hat ;-P

Just a reminder that Waterford Hills is having another Race weekend in a couple of days, for those who might want to check out what we do when we're not running Open Track Days.

And speaking of OTD's, it's not too early to sign up for our last one of the season....before we shut down early to repave the track;

Any mechanics recommended in the area?? Buddy in his 01 S2k has thrown a check engine light and would like to diagnose.

I would be in for a meet also. I've sold my s2k and have a Subaru. But hopefully would like to hang out.

You can take the car to any Autozone, O'Riellys, etc and get a free diagnostic to identify the CEL. Then depending on the "issue" someone could set you up with a proper mechanic if it is not something he/you are willing to tackle.

I think the CEL indicated misfire. Let me try to get him to post in this thread.
