LOL

It's true I don't.. I decided why the hell not..and it was fun.

It's funny every time someone sees that my car is dirty they don't believe it.

TMS has almost no grip, as it's a seal coated asphalt. The S2000 Club also has 8 runs, and they are a good group to run with.

All the clubs in the area are very helpful, and can offer free instruction for drivers looking to get faster. Check www.dfwautocross.com for a list of upcoming events.

If you really preferred this more open style of course then I would certainly recommend you check out http://www.texastimetrials.com/

While the time trials calender does not start for a few months they are an excellent opportunity to get as many laps as you want for a low low price.

Hey Jason did you find anymore out about that possible half day autox/time attack for 350z's? I think we could get a pretty good number out for something like that. Plus more seat time

I plan on calling dave today... to get some details.......

Right now, my next priority is: LONE STAR BASH!
https://my350z.com/forum/drift/48272...2-0-1-0-a.html

IF ANYONE WANTS TO COME OUT TO A BIG EVENT! AT LEAST COME WATCH!!
These events are nationally recognized, people from california or even farther will come out and try to win the competition portion of the event!! D1 licences will be given out most likely to the top placers so they can go on to compete at bigger events elsewhere!

be there!! see all the pics from post #5 and see how many people go out there for this event!!! DRIFTING EVENT of the year!

-J

yeah, having to open the restaurant at 4 kinda made it less appealing for me to drive all the way out there. it would have been funny to have people asking whose 240 it was running without the bumper.
