Default Track Day at Little Talladega - Late April

Who's up for a track day? April 30. We will need at least nine people and no more than fifteen. Cost will be $125 to $172 per driver after my $5 organizational fee dependent on how many people we get signed up. With groups of three alternating on the track for 15 minute sessions, everyone will get plenty of track time. The track is located a little over an hour west of Atlanta and we usually arrive 7AM central time and leave by 5PM. I will reserve the track once enough people have signed up and we have decided on a date. I will collect payment thereafter. If you pay for a spot and are unable to attend for any reason, you are responsible for selling your spot. Here are details from TGPRace.com:

3. Street Car Tune & Test $1,500.00 Weekday, $2,600.00 Fri, Sat or Sun

Up to 12 participants. +$100.00 surcharge for each additional car
Max 3 cars on track at one time
No aggressive passing
No timed laps
Minimum 4 corner workers recommended


Please specify your name, car, and track experience. Also mention if you have a preference for date.
1) Keith - dkmesa350z - 350z - intermediate

3) Rick - RugRatCoupe - intermediate
4) Brando - Porch - noob
5) Jamie - JNL - G35 - intermediate
6) Mike - 2003z - C6 - intermediate
7) Allen

Yup dealership royally screwed me over(put wrong fluid in tranny) so I had to get a new one since they won't own up to it

I got Tein Mono Flex w/ EDFC, Hotchkin sways, test pipes and true dual back on, and hopefully by then have a set of Kumho 710's for my extra set of wheels. Sad part is tho You will probably still pass/stay ahead of me

that sucks, no surprise that the dealership screwed you over though.

Oh that's right. I forgot about your coilovers, that'll be the best upgrade for the track. I finally got Hotchkis sways and haven't been on the track since installing my springs, so we'll see how mine does. I don't have tires on my stocks wheels so I may be running my heavy 19s.
