I've no problem giving rides. Depened on if the club will allow it though.

I'm going to TWS on the 11+12 Dec. So I won't be going with TDE the weekend before.

Gavin,

is this what you are referring to ? http://www.texasworldspeedway.com/ - ??

But....TDE ....???

Anyways, the next autocross at TMS or near me again if you come up I would like to ride with you Sir.

I could definitely use some good drivers to help me get better. Jason was great to ride with back in June at TMS, but I need to see others to get more runs of what other people do.

Hopefully they made some money from the Breeder's Cup to pay us back !

I would Almost be happy with a few extra runs on the next event or some seat time with an instructor from them.

That's very cool of them, I just wish we could have had 8 runs with the first course they had set up, that would have been sweet.

Chris I might be going to the motor sports ranch on the 4th and 5th of Dec it's open to green group which is what you and I will be in They mandate that you have a instructor ride with you, but you will want that you first serveral times out there. The motor sports ranch is a great track and it's not to far you will love it I promise.

Sounds like fun Kirk, do you have a link for it ?

I might need better brakes before I go out to that one.

I would say for your first trip out there as long as you have lots of pad left you should be fine, I didn't really push my car that hard on my first trip cause I was new to the track and it takes a while to feel comfortable enough to push your car really hard.

Yes, www.thedriversedge.net for Dec 5 & www.texasworldspeedway.com for Dec 11.

I'm going to the Texas World Speedway one in December.

I always keep a stickey here http://g35driver.com/forums/events/3...as-2010-a.html

If the two of you end up going to the drivers edge event at the ranch I can lend moral support since I'm just 20 minutes away. But doing 2 events back to back is rough (done it a few times).

Unless you've done a crap load of AutoX new (or nearly new) stock pads will be fine.

I would love to go to the Texas world speedway in Dec but it's only open to advanced drivers So looks like the only one that has novice slots open is the MSR on the 5 & 6th. I don't know how long or how much money it will take me but I will one day be in the Advanced run group.
