If someone has a set of wheels/tires I can borrow/rent and a spare Toyota coil pack, I'm in!
Right now my only wheel/tire options are crappy 8 year old (but only have 2000 miles, if that) Dumflops on stock daisies or the T1Ss that are on the car now, with the inner edges of the front being almost at the cords - rears have maybe 3k miles on them, but are a few years old too. So yeah, none of the tires I have are trackday ready![]()
Not interested in a track day.

Track Day? I'm not standing around all day in the cold weather just to drive around a few corners and... Oh, wait, never-mind.
Yea, I'd be in for a track day.
Hell, I'd even do a soapbox derby at this point.![]()
In for a trackday if that looks doable. In for the autox party too. Even in for the soapbox derby. I'm so splintering your ass!

You do realize you guys can just pay your dues and do a track day without any help or organizing? I like how some talk shit about autocross in winter...fall actually, yet they don't bother with track in the warmer months. Grow a pair and come out and autocross!![]()

I have more seat time in a soapbox: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hf-bYz7nTxw
I'm always down for seat time and hanging with friends.. Let's just hope it's on one of my weekends off since I work every other weekend now, I have to throw on a new timing belt and water pump before the next race, cuz mine took a crap driving home from ennis last time at import face off, or just swap my 1.8 in already...
i want to drive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I learned this the hard way.....
Take all of your valuables out of your car at night. This includes taking the mounting hardware off of your windshield or dash and hiding the power supplies. I lost over $ 1,000 to a thief with no hope of recovering my items and to top if off they smashed my window in the rain and my truck got soaked. Let my loss be your learning experience.
What about ECR on Dec 23, 26, or Jan 2?
M3 is always the answer.
In for ECR Jan 2
VW Bug in running shoes
M Porcupine sedan
M Porcupine coupe
Crusty old e46 beater
Battery Powered appliance car
For me, 23rd is out, 26th maybe, 2nd best bet.
On the track, I am fearless.
If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

In for ECR Jan 2. 23rd is out, 26th second choice.
Anyone have a LS1 engine I can borrow?
So it actually looks like this is heading towards a track day?

FYI, Apex Driving Academy is having an event at MSR on January 2nd.
DFW Auto Club is sharing the track with them – they have 18 spots for a ”private” track day at MSR on the 2nd.
Just FYI.

Just checked... my new RS3's won't arrive until Jan 4th or 5th. I can do an AutoX, but the tread on two of the tires is about 1/16", so there is no way they'll survive a track day.
ECR is available on 12/23 or 1/2 for $150.
MSR 1/2 with DFW Auto Club $150 or Apex $200
M3 is always the answer.
