Didn't see this before, but my 1st track day was with trackxperience and it was an awesome one.

I like it because it's smooth. You really have to alter your lines at SMMR because of the rough spots. Miller is heaven though.

hahahaha

this one is alil too soon for me to be ready, just found out about it the day i posted. if i knew like 2weeks sooner, id be all over it, cuz its three groups, so i could be in the hardcore noob group, instead of noob/intermediate or whatever they do on 2group days. plus its cheap, with free lunch.

i gotta test my dragbike before a race im going to on 9/20-21, so im lookin at october(even tho i got another race, but no testing) or more likely november for 1st trackday for me. ive been riding everyday(car hasnt been started in a month lol), tryin to practice what oreograborio was talkin about(gd form startn from scratch) in the hangn off thread.
haha I gotcha... I can't wait to hear how you like it. You're going to be off the wall wanting to go back right away.

Yes practice your body positioning. The sooner you can do it right and make it second nature the better, because you can concentrate on the track. Try going to a parking lot and have a buddy take pictures or video. You always think you're doing things one way but then when you see a picture it's always different.
