It's almost that time again kids! ClubZ track day at Thunderhill. It's been almost 6 months since ClubZ has run an event so I'm sure there are more than a few of us that are getting eager.
For those of you that are thinking about tracking for the first time this is the group to run with. A very forgiving course with a great club. ClubZ typically runs Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced groups so there is a speed for everyone.
Hopefully we'll see some new faces at this event!

I'll be signing up....although I wish they would either drop A and have 2 different B sessions....or allow some B drivers in the A session. From what I remember, B was extremely crowded.

 

Then maybe some B drivers need to come play in C

 

Seriously. I think the breakdown was something like 12-30-15 (or something similarly disproportionate) last time.

 

are you running in C

 

they haven't open up registration yet?
can't find the right link...

 

Yes I've run C at the last few track events. Hoping to have my slicks by Nov

 

I'll be there. I've already requested the day off.
Oh yes and I will actualy be driving a z at this one.

 

Are they going to have any events at Infineon anytime soon? Thunderhill is just a bit too far of a drive from South San Jose.

 

Hahha most of us are driving from the south bay So there are no more excuses, we usually caravan up.

Hope to Zya there

Our events are structured to provide a safe environment, good instruction, tons of track time, and the lowest possible price! This event promises to build on our past successes and be a fun event for all! If you've never brought your Z to the track to see what it can do, you are missing out on a great experience. You can even invite your friends as all makes and models are welcome.

Oh forgot to mention Shorty's is closed down so I wonder where dinner will be this year. Maybe Round Table? And for those of you worried about Shorty- not to worry- We found out he closed down the BBQ to open a Starbucks in Willows

 

Can anyone recommend a helmet and where to buy it? Also, how much do they normally cost?

This is gonna be my first track day (and probably not my last), so I figure I might as well buy a helmet now instead of forking over $25 for a rental each time.

 

I bought mine at Frey Racing (off Mission). But I heard a rumor that they closed - can anyone confirm?

You can pick one up a solid one for ~$200-$350. Bell makes some nice helmets in this price range.

 

just registered. anyone driving up from the bay area
in the morning hours?

what are you guy/gals doing?

 

We'll get together a caravan and post details here.

 

I'll be there - you know it..

 

Roll on? 3.....2.......1.......

Three weeks left people, who's next?
