What do I need to participate in "$315 for Novice w/Instructor" ?
Can I still keep my engine oil after that short session? I've never been to track and I'm fairly new to manual transmission, too, but would it be too difficult for me? Sorry I just threw away few questions but I'm really interested!! lol I don't need brake pads and fluids and all that replaced after the track event right..? I don't think I can manage to go around corners crazy and stuff either |

Will the registration be open till tomorrow you think @AZP Installs?
I'm a total noob and never been to track but I'd like to get some proper training on the track and I think this will be my golden opportunity to learn the basics of the car. I guess since this could be somewhat dangerous being on track and all I would need the helmet rated snell 2005 or snell 2010? So If helmet meets snell2005 or above any helmet is fine, correct? And like you said although typical track event would require brake pad, brake fluid, engine oil, and other things replaced after or in-between track events, as this event will be more of an educational-focused and since I won't be pushing the car as I'm a novice, is it safe to assume that I can just presume my daily driving after the track event without any replacements and stuff? I understand that there's no guarantee and if things need to be replaced or what not I'd be glad to do so but I'm just gauging what I'd need to spend and what I don't have to spend my money on Thanks!! I look forward to this |

Had a question on passing for this trackday, since rules for each club can be different. It states:
"Novice Solo $295 Attended first AZP Track Day or Other Track Experience (Includes Classroom, Instructors Available on Request, Trackwalk) Advanced DE Solo $295 (Open Track with Pointby, Trackwalk, Advanced Classroom)" Can you clarify whether passing on Novice Solo is allowed (with point by) or only Advanced DE Solo? Thanks.

You should be ok, since it isn't a racing event, but those regs should have the answer.

Depending on your milage, you may want to get the fluids changed ahead of the event. We can definitely give your car a check at our shop to make sure you will have enough pads etc for the event. As a novice you will not wear out your tires or pads so excessively that it will only marginally effect the overall service length of the consumables. But yes it won't adversely effect your car as a daily driver in my opinion. Last season I drove my 335ix with automatic at several DE events and it didn't adversely effect the brake pad wear etc. -Mike Paisan Maintaining, Modifying and Educating TriState Enthusiasts since 2001.

Caravan anyone??? If I can find a decent crowd to drive down with I'm willing to make the 4hr drive. Sounds like a blast!

If you know a buddy, try and borrow one this year or get a cheap one. The new 2015 models should be out by next year, giving you a full 10 year cycle. You really need to go to a store and try them on. Each manufacturer has a slightly different shape (round vs oval). A friend recommended Bell Star to me, but unfortunately it doesn't fit my head shape. Here are 2 auto stores in NJ you can try, other local motorcycle shops will also carry helmets but are M only. http://www.stableenergies.com/ http://www.teamdi.com/
