> [@1stgen"](#): > > Not enough tires to do both racing and HPDE’s , wish I could go every fucking day of my life…but instead I’m in a living hell called my life most of the days of the year. Speaking of which, I may come in soon since I adjusted the ride height to where I think I want it. May need an alignment, though it feels perfectly fine. To those interested in spectating or participating at an event: I will be at Watkins Glen for an event on August 22-23 and September 21-23. You’re more than welcome to drive up for the day, but be advised we’re usually on track by 9am, and done by 4-4:30pm. So if you’re waking up at 11am, you may not even bother unless you’re staying overnight at one of the area’s hotels. It’s a 3hr drive, with some decent roads on the way depending on if you take all the way to Elmira/Horseheads on I-88, or getting off at the Bainbridge exit and taking back roads from there. I’ll do my best to get you on track as a passenger in an instructor’s car, so bring a helmet that is Snell 2005 or newer. Can be a motorcycle or auto helmet. You will also need long pants (jeans preferred) and most of the time a long sleeve shirt (cotton preferred), as well as closed-toe footwear. I will need your name in advance to put it on a guest list so they’ll allow you through the front gate (which is free). Fuck it, I’ll just make a thread with all the info lol. ---

More than that… Limerock just “feels” like an oversized auto cross… dangerous/scary whatever you wanna call it. Truly shows skill and nutsack to drive it well. That said, its still a blast…but I would have a blast driving around the state campus without fear of a police chase. ---

Still one of the best/scariest/fastest tracks there is…totally fucking crazy going flat from west bend down the downhill and through onto the front straight. In fucking sane ---

I lack the balls to do it flat out. I have to lift going into the downhill or else I’d soil some underpants. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/limerock-park-7-31-12-because-race-car/264575.md?page=2)
