For those of u interested in getting some track time..

Mazdadrivers are offering a two day track session this spring..

so is this actually MADS? or is that at another time. why only one course?

It is MADS I believe. I drov ethe north coarse and it is killer.

I highly recommend that you attend if at all possible.

mazda sportscar club of america held MADS...

its actually no longer referred to as MADS as its being coordinated through mazdadrivers...

one course is plenty for an instruction session..

I did realize that it is no longer called MADS, old habits die hard.



Either way it is a blast.

yeah its gonna be fun i gotta register!

The North Course, in itself, is over 2 miles long; bigger then some full-length road courses. I'd like to go but I'll see what happens.

i went to that with ihor is september, talk about a long ass drive, it was fun nonetheless, including the hotel

hopefully i can have my turbo II running by then

I've been an instructor with MCSW/Mazda Drivers for their VIR events, towing all the way from Houston just to do them. Although I instruct all over the country, you will not find a better or more fun event than the MDA events. Make it a point to attend either the spring event on the North course or the September event on the full course. I'll be at the fall event along with a few of my Houston instructor friends again.

i will hopefully be going both dates. hope to meet you there !!!!!



there is a local instructor the next town over in NJ.... i forget his name though dammit

Anyone else going in Sept.?

I may not have the car ready for the spring event, but hope to be at the Sept full course event :bigthumg:

I will be iin the fall event, The one in the spring I am gonna miss 'cause my troubles with the DMV. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/violin.gif

ride down with someone https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

trailer the car...

i am trailering my car. you going jio ?

most likely..

i hope you go. it should be alot of fun!

This is a bad advice https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

...because there is nothing worse than sitting by the track while everyone else is driving on the track.

If you drive down with someone, make sure you have a ride on the track as well.

2fast7s' said he might ride down with me. if he does. i'll let him take my car for a spin on the track https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



he can't go his car has a blown clutch and needs some other things addressed . its nice to get away from home for a few days https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/v1.gif

Another bad move. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



Never let another driver drive your car on a track.

...Unless your hand strength is greater than his.

It's very tough to pry loose the fingers from the steering wheel after a taste of wide open throttle driving/braking/cornering on a road course, especially the VIR

whatever Ed i give up LOL

vosko, look me up in September. I usually pit right in the middle of the pits along the pt entrance main road and have a big white awning. Here's a shot from last August at another event we went up for...

Here's my car in case you don't remember...
