Streets is fun and a great place to break yourself in if you've never tracked your G.

If it's the Big Track, WATCH OUT FOR Turn #3!!! I skid into the wall there.

I don't think I'll be able to make it, but for those who go, it'll be a blast. It will also be very hot, but it will be fun. If anybody comes with, they better bring an umbrella, lots of water, and sunblock.

^lol i have got a little twitchy in turn 3 as well, but turn 5 was the one that sent me into a 75 degree slide at 70mph 2 laps in a row, luckily i was able to keep the car from spinning out.

^^^I've heard about turn 5 . . . but someone else spun out at turn 3 so i didn't feel that bad that$**** was so embarrassing, still i didn't give up and kept going at it (albeit slower). it even rained that day and i was still there.

I can arrange a rental for you, provided that you can get yourself insurance.

Start firming up a actual date, and I'm sure people can be more firm with their commitments.

I need to have at LEAST 10 people seriously interested before I can pursue this further due to a deposit being required to reserve a track day...

I don't have that kind of $$ to drop a deposit on my own =\

Might want to advertise on my350z then; not too many G drivers track their cars.
