Summer track days sign up for PIR & ORP for beginners and up

[BRZPDX]

Not sure if my car will be ready this season. Too much expenses right now, and I know for a fact my car is not track ready yet.
Slim fan
Oil Cooler custom mounting
rear axle
vented hood/holes on front bumper
slim crash beam replacement
AFR/EGT gauge
Brake pads
Brake fluid

These are minimum mods I will need before any track day or most likely the car will be towed back to PRE after every track event.

Is there an alternate training session for noobies. I work a swing shift so if I attend a night class, I pay that money, and lose my income for the night.

Might be worth it, but figured I'd ask in here before making a bunch of phone calls or surfing around looking for an answer.

As far as I know the only training class is the one the night before the track day. I would email the lady about it. Her info is on the website for signing up for the track day.

I've talked to a lot of people saying they want to track their car. Here's your chance! Don't let fun and learning how to drive pass you by.

I should be even faster now that I painted my brake calipers red!

Let's see how long they stay red with all that heat you'll be producing going into the chicane now that you should be hitting mid 120s at the braking point

FWIW I saw my rotor temps peak somewhere between 1050 and 1200 degrees at my last track day on stock power, what's the paint rated to?

Looks like it says up to 980. I imagine it will be close but the calipers aren't sitting on the rotors so shouldn't be as hot as the rotors.

I'm registered for the next 3 events. Going to register for the ORP event in July as well.

Getting corner balanced next week and sold my old exhaust and Prius tires for some extra cash, should be able to make the majority of these.

I'll sign up once my alignment is done next week.

I'll probably be holding off till the ORP event financially I think I should save a little money

Is the ORP event you're talking about the July 29th HookedOnDriving.com event that costs $325? Seems a little expensive compared to $180 for PIR. Plus I'd need a hotel room. I definitely can't spend that much but wish I could go.
