Open Track Race @ Waterford Octh 11th

Last one of these for the season, it's a bit pricey ($150) but you get a bunch of hotlaps on an open track.

$150 for an open track day is pretty good. I've paid up to $250 for lapping days.

Pm me if yer going. I live about 2 minutes from that track. Just so ya know if you bring a street car they take your insurance card and call your company if you crash on their track, especially if you put it in the pond! :) It IS fun though.

Everyone missed out on an awesome time! Doing 90 down a straightaway then slamming your brakes until they turn to mush is unequalled in Autocross. After I got all my turn apexes down I was actually passing people when I assumed I'd be waving everyone on the whole time.

Heat 1: passed Alfa Romeo Milano and a Honda Prelude
Heat 2: Passed my neighbor in an SVT focus, but then got passed by a firebird and blue STi
Heat 3: Pased a Jetta and a Mustang GT (think he was a novice driver).

I ran red class which was right in the middle of estimated skill. They're having another one in Oct that I'm definately signing up for along with my order for new tires from tirerack (6 hot laps at a time eats tires right up).

Unfortunately no times, only thing I was disappointed about. I did get this horribly awful on-track video (http://atomicinternet.homeip.net/photos/album.asp?album=WATERFORD_TRACK_7-6-2008) along with some photos (http://atomicinternet.homeip.net/photos/album.asp?album=WATERFORD_TRACK_7-6-2008).

i agree. october im down. i got quite a few odds and ends to straighten up though. 2 konis, harness bar...the list goes on. would they let me run without a harness bar?

Do you have regular seat belts?

[CougarGuy1802]

for now. i have both. once i get a harness bar im gonna glass my b pillar smooth and just have small holes for my harness bar mounts.

[Jorgen]

I know you can run with just seat belts. I woudl assume with a harness bar they will let you run but they may have to look it over since it is not an OEM part.

[CougarGuy1802]

i would think so too.

This is the last one this season, so if you ever had the urge, this is the time!
