Most likely qualifying will be done in the morning, although we know thats not the ideal situation and are looking at other options. Unfortunatly Cayuga wont let us do strict drift days, and dunnville wont. So besides oval tracks (which we are looking into) our only option is shannonville we can become a bit expensive to run as just qualifying dates. ---

Shannonville is the most drift-friendly track, they’ll definetely let you do strict drift days. Maybe its possible in the budget to do just 1 full driftday and hold regular CSCS days at cayuga. ---

A good thing of coarse. However, I saw alot of interesting lines and some people had no idea what the passing rules were. The drivers meeting didnt seem to cut it in most cases.

I honestly don’t think a coached lap should be necessary. If people can’t listen to (and remember) the very few rules there are for these events, you should not be on the track. ---

We split the cars up generally into two group, intermediate and advanced. The idea is that beginners are in the intermediate group while the experienced guys drive in advanced. However, drivers are able to allocate themselfs into groups also based on their car. If a experienced driver comes out but is driver a smart car (has yet to be done lol) he may feel more comfortable in the intermediate group. Reason for the split is to reduce the passing. As for the coached lap it isnt mandatory, unless we notice that you really need it. It is recommended that first time drivers speak up and ask for advice. Any of our marshals, along with most if not all of the experienced drivers are always willing to lend a hand. Dont be afraid to ask. These groups are for time attack ---

I would agree with Conky on the mandatory ride alone/instruction for first timers or for anybody that’s confused with any high-pace track day or other forums of track event’s. Chris also offers some good advice, if your not sure ask and if you need instruction there are lots of guys willing to help others out, if you can’t find any help then look me up…. I’ll be driving the black RX7. ---

Chris also offers some good advice, if your not sure ask and if you need instruction there are lots of guys willing to help others out, if you can’t find any help then look me up…. I’ll be driving the black RX7. I have to agree with Jim and Conky here. Last year there were a few scenarios where I was passed in a very unsafe manor (entering a corner) while I was awaiting a signal from the driver in front of me. Had I not been keeping an eye on my mirrors there would have been a collision if I took my usual line. I know you guys cant babysit, and cant see everything that goes on, but there are far more inexperienced drivers whenever you have such a high volume of cars at one event. The rules were very clear to me in the drivers meeting but maybe these people were not listening or not even there. I would be more than willing to take new drivers out for a few laps in the GTR. ---
