Highway8, I'll be there on Fri Nov 13 with TEAM Racing.
I just got my rx8, but in the past, I've done a track day every 6-8 weeks. Let me know what other events you sign-up for.
I'll likely be at Buttonwillow in Dec with Speedventures.

i'd be interested in future track days...
haven't been on the track in a good bit... it'd be fun! it'd also have to be a weekend though... haha
you guys ever drive a little further down to say buttonwillow or something? it'd be quite a ways to get up to norcal for that (and yes, i realize this is a more norcal biased thread...)

The weather for November 6th is looking to be perfect. All the spots are full except the race group. If anyone wants to come out to check out the track and go for a ride, just show up and enjoy.

Note: to be in the race group you have to have a race prepped car and I think you have to be in the race series they run.
I would like to do infineon and at $169 its a great deal, but I am not going to do infineon for the first time in december. If it rained I would be learning a new track in the rain and mistakes at infineon cost a lot more then they do at thunderhill. I will until next year to run infineon.

So for the last 2 years I have been going to Thunderhill raceway in Willows California for HPDE. I have done 6-7 track days now and seena total of 4 other RX8's. I am a little disipointed about this. I know other people attend but I guess I never see them.
So what I propose is we get a group togeather and all attend at the same time. I would like to see 10-15 cars or more.
I have found the best group to go with (for price and organization) is NCRC (Northen California Racing Club) http://www.ncracing.org/events.php
The price is $125 plus $10 if your not a member (membership cost $40)
UPDATE: The Novemeber price has been lowered to $99 plus $10 if your not a member
There are 5 different groups:
Race: Wheel to wheel racing, under "gentleman's rules" - no contact allowed
Open: Full track mandatory passing with no point-by
Point-By: Full track mandatory passing with point-by
Solo: Mandatory passing on straights with point-by, optional passing in some turns
Driving School:
Dates: I am looking at Friday September 25th 2009 and Friday November 6th 2009.
So if you are interested, complete the poll.
