Rich, you think we can try to setup a day at t-hill for s2000's only? I was taking a look at the calender and they have open days for rental. What do you think?

Oh, let me also add that there are a lot of other track schools out there. Some could be better. I just chose trackmasters.com because they were cheaper and they provided instruction (for free, I guess since it's all inclusive), lunch, and they screen you for membership. Meaning if you're an idiot after the first trackday, you won't be coming back. There were some snobs there though, not the instructors, but the members. What I also liked was there are specific passing rules for the track, so it's really safe. Basically, people can't pass you until you signal for them to do so. So no one flying by on the inside of the turn and forcing you out.

Also, you don't need anything special rollbars for the s2000. And you can roll top down all day and get sunburned like me. Ha ha.

Oh yeah, an all s2k day would be awesome! especially if the instructors have a lot of experience in the s2k, maybe they'll have more tips and tricks for us

is anyone going to the lesson on 8/19? and you guys are sure s2000s dont need aftermarket roll bars at thunderhill? i heard they changed their policy recently when someone rolled their convertible, and no factory roll hoops are acceptable anymore (that page might not have been updated?)
