Was this from a website? I am desperately looking for some advanced training so I can get the most out of my FR-S. I live in NYC and it looks like Watkins Glen might be the closest (although I just gave the list a very quick look).

Ohhhh that looks good. I'm also interested in just advanced driver's training. Maybe something at a track. Everything I've found are thinks like "The Jeff Gordon Experience." I don't want to drive a NASCAR stock car.

Have any of you guys looked at renting out a track? Limerock just posted on their facebook page that you can rent out the autocross track, skid pad and an instructor for the whole day for $3000. If we had 10 people to go that would come out to $300 each. Not bad for a full day of drifting!

If enough ofou ar einterested i can rent a huge runway for less than that or the day:-)

I can rustle up some of the top instructors in the region as well...

I've organized some of the largest SOLO schools in the US for the last 10+ years now...

There also wil be a couple of BMW Ato X schoos at Devens that sell ot in 24 hours!

Cheers,
HAZMAT
My other car is a 400WHP EVO X :-)

When are those BMW schools?

The Boston Chapter BMWCC website hanot possted the race days or schools yet.

BUT MOTHERS DAY weekend will be EVO schools or some other sort of school event...

That's ridiculous. You can rent the parking lot at NHMS for $750 + insurance. For drifting, that runs about $550 a day. NHMS is 1/2 the price. I suspect if you skip the instructor you could save some money, though.

Come up to Drift Spot. It's $75 for a full day of drifting. I'm the President and we've doing this for over 5 years now.

Oh, and listen to Steve here. He's been running schools in New England for a long time. I've had the pleasure of attending multiple EVO schools with him. Good stuff.

There any spots outside of the NASA NE where we can go watch races/drifting? I really enjoyed seeing it when I lived out in Japan the past few years.

Awesome! I always wanted to properly push the limits of my vehicle in a safe environment.

This will be my first track day, so for all the newbies including myself, what is needed/requirements for a track day?

I don't want to drift btw... not intentionally.

Scda1.com has a track day in april. Perhaps we can get a group together and head down. Will be nice since the track won't be too hot.
