Ok, let dear 50%( if not more) of the peoples ''registred'' in this thread won't make it next year lol

[Snake556]

No prior track experience here either, but I'd still love to come out if they won't mind

[bignate]

I'm very interested and I feel I could offer some useful feedback. I have a few years of Time attack and lappings days for experience. Would definetly love some details.

Evening everyone!

I am still in the middle of finalizing all the details with the company and, instructor. I would help if I can get the tracking experience of the individuals down ASAP. So far we have a mix of no experience to experienced trackers.

I have a feeling that it's going to be at Shannonville next year, probably looking at late May.

Just a heads up, spots will be limited. Hope to get more info soon.

[Snake556]

Sounds awesome, Mike! Let me know if you need any info sent to you and keep us updated! This sounds fantastic!

[DJ]

I would be interested.
I've done some weekend lapping at calabogie.

[MattRose]

Sign me up, When and Where?

Update:

- I'm still waiting for a reply for the instructor.
- This will be a full day event.
- It will most likely be at Shannonville as a couple of drivers here don't have tracking experience.

I will work out on the registration process this week once I get more details from the instructor.

Sounds absolutely fantastic Would we be able to bring a passenger or two, Mike? Or driver only?

i have some concerns,

will the tires be mounted on our own wheels?

in my opinion, if most of the cars present are skylines, its safe to asume that we all need the same size of rim/tires
it would be a good idea to get sponsored by a shop to have a couple sets of rims on hand, or get a few used sets,
this way, any problems with techs mounting/dismounting tires on our beloved rims are automatically avoided,
also, it would take much much less time between each runs/cars, if only rims need to be changed
and also this way, it would be better for drivers to get a couple laps with their own tires for reference, and then quickly change for the test tires for another couple laps to really evaluate the performance capabilities of Sailun tires

Yes I had similar concerns also regarding sizing. With all the different rims sizes and wheel fitments you guys are going to need a LOT of tires in oddball sizes on hand. Most of us are running pretty low profile tires so its going to be a bit of a bitch to be changing all of these over.

[Snake556]

This is true. Good point, guys. If they have some spare rims or if some people could bring some for usage, that'd be pretty handy!
