Damn son, you make a thread for EVERY track event!



Just messing with you a bit Sean. Slow day at work. No crisises to avert, no bunnies to kill, no Terminators barging into the past.

Garage List
Do they allow multiple drivers for the day or is it only one per car?

Promised my mom a long time ago after she saw my participation in a GM sponsored CTS V track video that I would take her to a track day and this seems pretty good since it would teach her alot about tracking a car in general and some driving techniques if she ever needs to use them.

Not sure, I would call if anything. Just ask for someone other than the girl that picks up: she's kind of (and by kind of I mean totally) clueless about her job.
