Extreme speed@ willow springs Dec. 15-16th
 
I seen on their Facebook page for 90$ they are running the streets... Is anyone going to this... I've been to a trackday before at the streets, but on my bike.. I haven't done a trackday in a car... Ever... So I'd really like to find some people that are going that really could give some good pointers... Although the point is to get around as fast and quick as possible.. My main goal is to learn my car, get a good feel for it.. And have some fun..

Hey, I have not been on the streets course but did a track day with extreme speed on the big course. I'm planning on coming at least one day. I've only done a few track days with speed ventures at the auto club speedway but got bit and can't stop now. I felt that extreme speed is a well run event but not quite as "true" beginner friendly as speedventures. I also like the download sessions that speedventures uses. Never the less extreme speed is organized and way cheaper. Hopefully we can get a group of frs/brz going.

Ill be there on the 15th and doing the scion cruise on the 16th.. I'm hoping a few will go to the trackday.. Like I said I would like some hands on experience with people that know about the car

I registered for Saturday, the 15th, just trying to decide if I want to do Sunday too. I've had to pass up a few track days because I'm in law school so I have to get track days in where I can.

robispec 12-01-2012 10:27 PM

I'll be there both days!

TOTO_86 12-01-2012 10:40 PM

robispec 12-01-2012 10:41 PM

In the interest of not spamming the forum with threads... here's a cross-post from the California subforum:

Extreme Speed Track Events will also be running an exhibition competition that is open to ALL FR-S/BRZ/AE86, and be running with two classes:

If your car has ANY of the following, you fit into the Over class:

- Race tires or any tire UTOG Treadwear rating 139 and lower
- Forced Induction of any sort (except ram air intakes), or an engine swap that increases stock horsepower output by more than 15%.

Short of those mods, you fit into the Under class, regardless of suspension, aero, gutted, etc. We want to keep the rules as simple as possible, and the competition nice and friendly :)

Extreme Speed will be giving prizes to the winners of each class.

Additionally, ALL FT86club forum members will be given a $40 track credit toward a future track day with Extreme Speed. You must show up with a FR-S, BRZ, or AE86 to receive the credit!

Discount code for the event is "sow9", bringing it down to $90 for the track day. Please be aware that Willow Springs charges a $10 fee at the gate per person. You can sign up for the event at www.extremspeedtrackevents.com

If you have questions about the track day, please email Extreme Speed at sung@extremespeedtrackevents.com

If you have questions about car setup and/or prep, please send me a PM, and I'd be more than happy to guide you in the right direction.


The CounterSpace BRZ will be present at this event, as well as the Robispec FR-S. Both cars will be giving rides throughout the day.

I should be there Both days, All day. Come take a ride and drive your own "twin" like it wants to be driven..Instruction and rides all offered

I ran with ExtremeSpeed a few weeks ago on the Streets and had a great time. The event was well organized and everyone running was very nice. It's definately worth the time and money and with the deal posted above it's a must-do.

I really want to, just not sure if my schedule will allow it.

I just signed up for Saturday! Any chance I can get a ride along. Would love to see how a car with suspension handles. I saw you on Nov 25th and you were really hauling the mail.

Gixxersixxerman 12-04-2012 06:12 PM

i just signed up on the saturday event too.. Robi, when are you planning on heading to the track??

CSG Mike 12-04-2012 08:04 PM

Our car may have some more goodies on it for this ;)

Robi, I'm gonna try to give you a run for your money!

diirk 12-04-2012 10:19 PM

We should get all our cars parked/pitted in one spot.
