Could temps + wet weather? Be careful out there, all.

How about doing some track day instead? Spirited drive is fun and all, but track day is much more funner. I always tell people that to be careful doing their first track day. Not because it is dangerous. Rather it is so addictive, it is worse than crack.

One is coming up soon

I'm planning to make that my 1st track day, assuming I can figure out how to pass broomstick...

NCRC holds good event. But it might rain that day. Weather forecast is really good for the Dec 11 event. Why don't join us then.

Drift + Grip = muddy track. No thanks.

I've still got some work to do on the car (racing seat/lowering rails, fender rolling to fix some rubbing) and I don't think I can get it done by then.

I was skeptical too last year, but went anyway. It was great! Mainly because there were only very few drift guys and they kept it clean.

I've been looking forward to this. I will try my best to attend, I've always wanted to track my car. I'm very new to the game, can anyone give me tips/requirements to enter?
