Nick, if you can afford the extra $40, I HIGHLY recommend signing up for the driver school on Saturday. It will teach you quite a lot about what it truly means to "go fast by going slow"

Okay, sign me up. Tell me where to send the money. :cool:

Just bring cash with you, that will be easiest.

and Brandon... I want you to take a ride with Mark Smith or Mark Baer on Saturday and you understand what I mean!

So, how's this work? A professional rides with me and tells me how to run the course? Does this happen for all five runs on both days, one day, one run? Let me know. I'm a little confused what I'm paying for. It sounds cool, and it isn't that expensive, but I was just curious.

I'm not exactly sure what he has planned, Scott may have a better idea.

You run the 5 runs on Saturday, then after the autocross is complete, you will be assigned an instructor. That guy will go thru some basic concepts with you, and possibly a course walk, before you start driving. You will then take 3 runs with the instructor and receive instruction during and after each run. After that you will get 2 more runs to see how much you have improved.

Yes... that is TEN runs in one day... plus five on Sunday!

That aint no shit. I did a day in the rain on my potenza S03s (not full rain just wet part of the day) and I took like 15% of the tread off.

That was what I paid for my 15" Potenza S03s. I think it was like $420 out the door and they lasted the summer.

I am in no way telling you not to autoX. I think its a blast but I will do it again some day when I have some tires just for autoX and extra cash to support the habit.

I think after a couple of years floating around I should probably show up for once since I'll be down there for the show. :cool:
