I would guess that the novice(less than 2-days track time) is only to entice new people to come to the event. I assume that the track time is the same. Either way you are a novice and therefore should sign up for the novice class, you can always get signed off to move up a class while you are there.

…in the end it doesn’t matter because you won’t go

Jeff is correct about the track time. No difference between the Novice and the Regular student 2 day. The Ottawa chapter is pretty new and is trying to build up their program. We agreed to it --hoping we could also entice someone like yourself to try it out.

Hopefully he is wrong about the second part.

OBX? Where at?

I got a house on Cape Hatteras a couple years ago.

Days go like this:

-Wake up  
-Get hammered on screwdrivers/bloody mary’s/high balls/‘cream sodas’ as we called them (ginger ale and rum)  
-Go kayaking out behind the house in the marsh  
-go back in the house, get more hammered  
-walk across street in front of house to beach, bring beer.  
-swim, get hammered, dont die  
-go home, clean up, go to bar, get hammered  
-invite locals back to house, get rowdy, hammered  
-pass out  
repeat

Excellent choice.

Calabogie is about 5-6 hours from Albany. Depends on which way you go and how fast you drive ( or if you are towing)

PASSPORTS or PASSPORT CARD or ENHANCED NYS license are REQUIRED to get back in the USA as of JUNE 1st 2009.

It’s kind of hard to participate without a car.

At least I don’t go around saying I’m getting a cammed, full suspension, E36 M3 for $15.5 and then buy a stock 1988 Toyota MR2 for $6.5k. :rofl
