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.
Waterford Hills (WHRRI) October 12 OTD I'll be there, so now you'll know one person. Last edited by AtomicInternet; 09-12-2008 at 09:36 PM. |

Re: Open Track Race @ Waterford July 6th
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.

Re: Open Track Race @ Waterford July 6th
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 along with some photos. |

Re: Open Track Race @ Waterford July 6th
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.
