edit: vb crushing my format!

I'm trying to find a good post on getting started in HPDE for anyone who is interested - I don't think I am qualified to author one having done two track events; if anyone knows a good thread/article on the subject, I'll link it in the OP.

All you have to do is sign up and go!

Make sure your car isn't a complete POS and change your oil, brake fluid, and have a good amount of pad material.

Bring lots of warm clothes, listen to your instructor, and have fun.






Another good group to include is Tarheel Sports Car Club/ Triangle Z Club. Alot of Nissan guys run with them and they have some cheap time trial events also.

Woops, thanks. Must have screwed it up - kind of monotonous to make.

Anyone ever do an event with CarGuys? They don't have a schedule up yet, but just wondering.



All times are GMT -8. The time now is 09:35 PM.
