Eagles Canyon track day - Saturday, January 23rd

More info here.

Looks like Eagles Canyon is starting the track day season early this year. First event is Saturday, January 23rd. Cost is $150. Should be 5 or 6 sessions and roughly two hours of track time. Come on out and have some fun!

I'd love to see some more RX-8s out there. I'll be instructing at this event, so if you see this car in the paddock, come on over and introduce yourself!



See you at the track! :burnrubr:

I think I might try and make this. Anyone else interested?

Also, where's a good place in the DFW area to buy a helmet? I don't have one, but will obviously need one.

I was going to come to this but i decided against it since it's right after the holidays and it's $150, about 3 tanks of gas and a night in a hotel. I might do the February one (at least i think there is one in Feb)

edit: yes there is one in Feb. You conveniently posted the link above which i missed.

p.s. - your under panel is falling off altiain

I got mine from http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/ Got a really good deal on helment that was normally 200 for 90, so I cant complain. Think I've even showed it to you.

PS, SO down for this if you go as well.

I know. Four seasons of competitive autocross will do a number on all of the front plastic pieces. It's been fixed since that pic was taken.

Hope to see some of you out there!

LOL, so apparently I am early in my paper work.

I called today and they said they have only FOUR people signed up (which would not be enough for an event). She said what usually happens is that people fax it on thursday or friday.... so they will know more then.

So yeah scott there is deff a spot for you! :P

I've been on H2R twice in 2009, but I'm thinking about ECR to stretch out my RX8 a little.

Can I play, too?
