Reminder!

Just a quick reminder that track day is this month. This will leave you enough time to prep your car or buy your upgrades. If you're new and don't want to spend a lot of money, I suggest you get some negative camber up front and upgraded brake pads. This will help keep the outer tire from wearing out unevenly. (take a look at my photo below, the one with the missing patch) =)

I haven't had an instructor ride with me the last time I was there...However, I will have one ride with me this time. I think the only difference between redline and speedventures is a 10 dollar difference, but speedventures gives you a free meal ticket which kinda makes up for it. =)

If you took the class at Redline, you should have gotten an instructor to ride and drive with you. If you paid for the class and did not get an instructor, please let me know so I can credit you the cost of the school towards any Redline Track Event.
