Default Heading to the Track

Anybody going to be at TWS in October? I am heading out there with vette for the first time in about a month. If any of you guys are there make sure you come by and give the new guy some advice.

Come on over to the Autocross and Road race section. Lots of the track ppl bench race in there.
Also the sticky on the top has lots of great info for track time.

Good luck

I won't be there, but have a blast. I essentially started my "career" with DEs in an RX-7 in Hawaii in 99 and couldn't get enough. Sort of went off the deep end since then.

Jason, are you getting new shoes and stoppers before or after the trip?

GUARANTEED... Absolutely no way I am going on the brakes I have now. I am actually going to have them changed in the next week or two. They arent bad, but know they wont make it at the track.
