Im going to be scheduling 2 track days this summer and hoping to get some kind of consensus before inquiring to the base.
IE … One day in July and one in August for example
I want to rule out any portions of the summer months that may coincide with a major influx of holidays, camping or otherwise conflicting schedules with our membership. Although the days may be limited by police training at the facilities, Im hoping to hit a couple “sweet spots” for the membership that the most can attend.
June 20, 21 <— This one won’t be possible. AFAIK the NASCC (Northern Alberta Sports Car Club) has that whole weekend booked at Namao for their 2-day road race event.
BTW, June 20th is also the Z Club’s show n’ shine which we are hoping will include participation by NECC. (and I’m going to talk to you guys more about that tonight at the Hawlelak (sp) meet hopefully).
Ohh. . . . excitement fills the air! track days! iam signed up for all of them right now lol or as soon as they are booked cuz im that cool or hope to be. Random knowledge question, we do not have to have special procautions such as cooling systems for these events do we?
well i pasted tech for the Spec-D practices so… i think iam good… and i gots a shiny Snell helmet i bought brand new last year…
but the long pants…hmmm i dont know about that… i mean i usually like to race naked… its improves… umm well its just awesome plus i got leather so in summer i would think i would stick to it making it like a low budget bucket seat…HAHA JK
Thanks for asking this but I am approaching it in reverse. Confirm the dates that are available (there are usually very few) and I will book my holidays around the track days (if I can).
Aug 22 weeeknd is bad, dmcc in vancouver i know i shall be down there maybe a few other members ?? haha and the july 24-26
(grand prix weekend) i will be attending that as well those are the only things i can think of that would be big events that would conflict
Common sense here. You must past a basic tech inspection. And as long as you are not knowingly bringing a car which boils over or leaks coolant, you should be fine.
Long pants? As far as I knew, shorts are allowed for a Solo 2 auto-slalom. Can you confirm if you heard different?
OK … officially I have some concrete dates for our track days. Unfortunately ALL Saturdays have been taken for quite some time thusly I didnt have much to choose from even Sundays left over.
