Lapping July 12th CTMP DDT - SPDA

REGISTRATION FOR JULY 12 IS NOW OPEN


Spots go on sale immediately for the ATTS Beginner Friendly Track Day brought to you by SPDA-Online.

Experience the Driver Development Track at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park (Mosport). This is a challenging 2.8Km track, redesigned and rebuilt a year ago. To make this day extra special, we're providing coaching for newcomers to motorsports. This is not a racing event, but a fun day to spend with friends in a low key lapping event where you can safely enjoy the limits of your vehicles.

ATTS Lapping day #1: May 23, 2015 (We had a blast)

I just signed up for intermediate :) we need more events at DDT :)

I hope to be there again, I've attended the last 3 track days that the SPDA has put on at the DDT. My first I was a complete noob. If you've always wanted to see what driving on the track is like, this is the cheapest, safest, best way to do it.


Here's some footage of the track: (oops likely won't be this layout.. the kink will be in place down the back straight)

Is there any extra charge for bringing a passenger along?

nope, they just need to sign the waiver.

Is there helmet rental available?

They had loaners available first event. Lots of extras. This time i bought a helmet so more chance u can find a loaner :)

I believe one of the sponsors usually provides a few helmets. If you have any friends that ride bikes.. they may have Snell 05+ helmets they might lend.. At the track on a hot day in july.. the loaners may get a bit ripe.. just sayin...

Signed up again :)

See you all again

Signed up and submitted payment for Beginner.

Last question, only paid participants may run the Alligator Lapping or even friends/families too?

Anyone can come for the ride I think for the alligator lapping, they may have to sign a waiver not sure..

Anyone can come ride along for alligator lapping, and the usual rules (helmets and age limits) don't apply due to the slower pace.

Anyone going in the hot pit lane (not parking lot) or out on track needs to sign the waiver, but it's free!

There is about half a dozen loaner helmets, but we try to keep those available for the beginner run group. If we find that there's extras (or they're returned before the beginner run group) then there's more flexibility. As mentioned they might get pretty sweaty, especially in july.

Woot, registering ASAP.

Edit: still haven't received membership # yet...just punched in zero for now

You weren't kidding about ASAP :D

Don't worry about the member # at this point, I saw the payment come through for that earlier.

Also @wparsons send out a special thanks to whomever made the registration process way more streamlined and whomever got the lunches back :)

The message on the lunches was loud and clear at the last one!

A couple members (they're actually brothers) made the new page for registration, one of them will be at the lapping day if you want to high five him in person. :D

Done! Registered

Registered for intermediate. Forgot to put my membership number and also forgot to put my name in the PayPal payment. Hopefully got sorted out, thanks!

Paid! I forgot to mention in the Paypal that I paid for July 12. But see you there, this will be my first time on a track but I'm not a noob to fast speeds - I think I want to keep my licence a bit longer....lol

No worries, if you pay by the PayPal form after filling in the registration it automatically adds what event it is for.

Thanks. If I wanted to buy a helmet, anything in particular I need to look for? Obviously DOT approved but snell rating of some sort? Otherwise I'll have to borrow a helmet.

Most likely whatever you're running for AutoX will work too

Get snell rated for sure, it gives you more flexibility in the future. Some groups are ok with DOT only, some require snell.

If you can find one you like for a price you're ok with, a snell SA is best because it's rated for use in vehicles with a roll cage. Difference being a snell M is made to take a single impact in a crash, an SA is designed to take multiple impacts off a rollcage in a crash.

My SA2010 was about $300 taxes in, you can definitely get a snell M rated for less if you shop around though.

And whatever you do, don't buy a 2005 rated helmet, they're expired as of the end of this year.

Really tempted to join, 215+300 for helmet 😫

There are a few loaner helmets, but they might get sweaty through the day.

You can definitely get a cheaper helmet, I knew I was going to want to be in caged cars so I spent more on mine.

Royal distributing apparently has good deals on Snell M rated helmets all the time.

Not SA rated but much cheaper

Bump!! Intermediate has one spot left, beginner and advanced are filling up fast. Don't miss out!!

just signed up for the beginner class but forgot to add my name/email in the paypal payment, will i be ok?

Unless you use a fake name on your paypal account, it's fine. I did see one for an FRS come through this morning (or late last night).

yup! that was me :D

I'm guessing that intermediate spot was still open? Signed up just now and the payment went through.

Jesung? You got the last one.

Slight change of plans, intermediate expanded! No one lost spots, but there is some more room again.

Sweet. Thanks!

Will we be taking turns like every 15 cars for few laps? Just curious as I didn't attend the previous event.

Nope, it's pre-defined run groups.

15 minute sessions per group for most of the day, the first two sessions will be different to accomodate more in class time for the beginner group, then making up for it the next session.

register this afternoon, can i get a confirmation? intermediate here!

Anyone here running in Advanced or Instructor with an aftermarket header? I would like to get a ride along to see how loud they are in cabin

@BatStig will be there, in the advanced group. He's got the JDL EL catted (IIRC), and Perrin cat back.
@Trac Toy will be there, in the instructor group. He's got an OFH and Invidia N1. It's loud.

As @wparsons said, I'll be there. You're more than welcome to come for a spin to hear the lovely noises my car makes. My only stipulation is that you please wait until after the first session. I was there last Friday and I wasn’t at my best. I need to exercise some demons first!
