Obviously, you're right, and I knew that. That's what I get for multitasking and not proofreading. Thanks.

As far as I know you have to belong to a club/company that is hosting a track day at Road Atlanta. RA is a great course. I'll be there in Oct for the Petit Le Mans if anyone here is going we should meet up.

I have only done AutoX with SCCA, but a fellow Z owner mentioned that the PDX events at Road Atlanta are only $100 for I believe 2 or 3 20 minutes sessions. I think that's a great deal personally.

Track Guys and Tracks Unlimited host HPDE days at AMP as well as Chin Motorsports. I'm sure that there are other companies as well. You can also purchase a memebership or go to the track with someone that has a membership. About a month ago I took my 2011 SS Camaro there with Tracks Unlimited. AMP was a ton of fun in a slightly unexpecting way. I enjoyed it nearly as much as Road Atlanta. I'm excited for an opportunity to get the FRS up to AMP on some sticky 235/40/17 Toyo RA1's that are mounted on Enkei 17x8 RPF1's.

By the way, I drove my Ultramarine FRS home from the Dealership today... it now has a new home. Tomorrow it gets Enkei Rajin wheels and Michelin Piot Super Sports 245/35/18 along with the Eibach lowering springs.
