Can I still go with an Auto? Lol, I never tracked before. I can borrow helmet and stuff from my friends who do track

if you need tires, give me a ring I have hook ups on used high performance tires. They have nice thread life left and cheap

I only use RS3s.
I currently have about 8 of them sitting in my garage for myself, and another 28 I am selling for a friend.

As you can tell, I have plenty. I just need to use the ones i Have on my car to put on some new ones

But I'm still interested in hearing what you have. But I only use RS3s, as no other performance tire can match it (unless you go to R comps...which I don't want to do)

Check those threads out

I don't run V12s, too weak of a sidewall. I also hate PS2. and dislike CS3s and PSS lol. For track duty that is. They're fine tires for occasional use, but 1-2 events per month...sometimes 3-4... I'd be crazy to run anything else lol

I love v12s, their good front tires but too bad my wheels are a bit too small for the 275 and bit too wide for 255s :/ I might end up going to the track that day though hopefully

is there any beginner, intermediate, pro levels that day?

V12s are great, just not get too greasy for my driving style

There is beginner, intermediate, and advanced. possibly a drift session if enough people sign up

Should I be in beginner since I've never been there? I'm usually at the canyons a lot though and I'm in for the GRIP session

Do beginner, and if you're clearly faster than everyone else, ask to be moved up to intermediate

I tend to run Advanced.

Be careful learning to drift on horse theif, the elevation changes and lack of runoff in many spots can make for a steep learning curve. I love that track tho, super fun.

Per day.

KwlAznKid · 02-05-2012, 04:10 AM

i did horse theif mile in the pouring rain, it was fun but a bit scary as well

and if it's your first time at the track do beginner, a lot of "advanced" or "intermediate" people do beginner as well i've noticed and trust me you won't get bored in the beginner group. if you really think you're driving is being restricted due to the class you're in then you can just move up next time

you can ask to be bumped up or down any time you feel youre in the wrong group

I tend to switch between intermediate and advanced
