thanks, it was alot of fun.

Should really get a instructor to teach you the first time you are there. 80% of the turns there are like blind, so u need to memorized most of the track before you start to have fun. Having a instructor will speed up the process. I prefer this track over mosports but that's because ive been to mosports many times. Its a really fun and technical track, i think with 24 turns or something.

a great experience !

If we go to calabogie, we definitely need to stay overnight. It's already tiring enough to drive to shannonville and go few hours of hard driving then another 2 hour trip back home.

Fell asleep on the way home before with 48 hours of no sleep and ran the Z up the center concrete divider once. Luckily, there was no damage...

Kinda pricey 400+ tax + the normal things like gas to get there and a tank for the track etc.. maybe a stay over? Sounds like it would add up over 6 bills.

The cost of lapping packages will be as follows;
Single days $350
*a fee of $50 is applicable to all orientation programs
**GST will be added to the above

^Dave, the buzz kill!
hahaha, jk bro..

We need to arrange a large group and see if we can rent for a few hours.
Or
We get in with another car clubs track day and head out as our own small group.

Sound like a good idea for a meet. It'd be cool just to cruise over together...i'm up for a 350z event...though I think i'll be staying in the side lines and snap some pics instead.

Sorry man it was looking good to me as well until I checked it out a little.

Why does it always have to cost so much to have fun at the track

If you're looking for a track day check out https://my350z.com/forum/east-canada/322769-mosport-gp-lapping-may-23-2008-a.html
It's not Calabogie, but it's an awesome track.

BTW Mikhe, white would be my colour choice too! Those pics look great.
