Guys don't worry about the oil cooler. First off, if you are unfamiliar with the track, you will not be pushing it all out. Secondly, if its a hot day, we will recommend a cooldown interval just to be 100% sure you wont overheat the car.


I also recommend running 5w40 for the track.

Street tires will last a long time at the track. Unless you are underinflated, you will probably not notice the wear after 4 or 5 sessions, unless you are really familiar with the track and able to push it to the absolute limit.


I recommend making sure the pads still have some life left in them, and most importantly, change your brake fluid the week before the event (any decent fluid, don't go crazy with racing stuff).

Lunch and track entrance fee you said.. are we taking a pic or something on a track after everyone's done? lol

Or just to enter to the parking lot area?

Will be a nice drive down there time and weather permitting



Those coming for the meet, for $20 you get lunch, hanging out, and we will try to give rides towards the end of the day, which will either be free or for a small fee.

The event is primarily for Lexus and GT86 clubs, but we will accept few outliers ;-)

Please note updated registration information as follows: Hot on Driving was able to allocate few more instructors, so we are extending registration until they fill up! However, please register as soon as possible -- they still have limited number of instructors.



Thank you!

Guys, just a reminder that we have less than 4 weeks until the event on September 12th. For those who want to drive with an instructor and have not register, thanks to Hooked on Driving adding additional instructors, you can still register, but please do this ASAP. For those of you who just want to attend a fun meeting at NJMP, please register for attending ($20 for entrance and lunch). We need to start getting an attendance count for food.


Any questions, please PM us or call at (484) 756-1777.


Thank you!
Simon

Also helmet Ive been wating 3 weeks on now. 2 weeks ago it came in but had the wrong cheek pads so I had them order the correct ones for me. went in last friday and someone forgot to order them so they are ordering it again. So hopefully next friday so I can gokart with it to break it in.
