Very.
You bring up some very good points, Chris. You don't have to go 110% at the track to get your money's worth. In fact, you could go 40mph the entire time and still learn a lot about proper braking timing, entering and exiting turns, judging turns, etc etc etc.
I'm going to vote for a track day.
Would anyone be interested in coming to NM? There's a track in Abq that's comparable to SCR.

BTW, this might be a good thread to follow, as I do believe tracks require helmets.

Damn, I forgot this minor detail derk, I'll have to look into buying an SA helmet. I have an M lying around, but it is a bit old. Plus, once i get the 'tour under 12 seconds, I'll need a helmet anyway right? muahahahahah... someday, i hope.

Hey CO CEG'ers, I am working on a great deal. I will have more info. tomorrow. I might have a track in Denver that is closed to the public, but I know the guy that owns it ! ! ! I think I might be able to get us on there for $500.00 ! Like I said, I am working out detail's, Big track, with everything you could ever want in a raceway. PLUS: I know we don't have to have helmets. I don't think we have to worry about any extra $$$ either ! The only down side is that I think Sunday's is the only day I could get the track AND the road to the track is in bad shape, dirt road. If we drive slow enough to the track, we should not bottom out. So 100 positives and 2 negatives ! More info tomorrow. -B.

without a doubt the SHO folks are going to be invited.
Cougars? Foci?

I'm thinking at least Foci and SHO, then let's see where we are at with all the signups.

Oh i agree, It'd be awesome to have a huge turnout, but I think we also need to have plenty of track time, specially if we are going to be paying, thats all. But if signups are slow, lets just invite everyone.
