Spring is around the corner and no one is posting track days????? If you need an official pace car, my X5 is always up for duty.
:yak:
Plus my summers are almost bald, so I need a reason to get new ones. :thumbsup:
I've already registered for 2 events. Well, 3 if you include Glen's December sign-up thread.:)

None for me yet, except Glenn's December signup. I'd better get on it. I gotta take that BMW school at Mosport.

If there are instructors, usually not a problem, but Glen is the final word on that since its his day.

What happened to the MINI. Brakes melt, clutch dies, engine blows up. Lets just say it now has a new lease on life out of warranty. No it wasn't just me. I'll explain further details when I see you guys...lol

ok, date is still open and we need more people, otherwise it's going to be like $300pp with the list we have now.
I would like to get commitments from the people on the list and say an upfront payment of $250 right now to actually see how many real people we have before I think about booking the track.
If I don't get everyone, it's not going to happen because once I book and we don't get enough I'm on the hook for 50% of the total cost.

Ok so you want $250 now? Works for me... I'd like to use EMT, so if you have an e-mail address I can use to send payment, please post it up and I'll send.
Yeah, I'd rather not pay $300... Hopefully we can get more people.
Thanks

Glen - are you saying you want the $250 now and you'll hold it pending more people? And if we don't go with it, you'll return our $250? Or are you saying that we're a go with $250 as it stands now.
I'm definitely in and was hoping it would be $200+/-..but as the price goes north of $300, I'd be a little more hesitant.

I'll pay the $250 now if that will secure the track day.

04-23-2008, 08:54 PM
I'm in, funds ready. It's been a long winter.
Do you think you'll get more interest if it's opened up for first-timers?
glenspeed
04-24-2008, 07:54 AM
sorry if I wasn't clear.
I'll take $250 now to see how many are committed. I won't book the day until I have let's say 20 people. If I don't get that, I'll return the $250.
With 20 people the $250 will cover the day.
if you do interac you can send to:
glenspeed [at] rogers [dot] com
mark it May trackday, otherwise I may mix it up for the other event...

uh, wtf? you were running fine on Sat.Yeah. Everything was fine until Sun.
Towards the end of the 1st session on Sun a loud knock / vibration came from the engine and the engine temp shot up. ? bearing / rod/ etc? It still ran, but I shut it down before any more damage happened. Got a flatbed home courtesy of CAA.
Oh well, at least it didn't blow in the middle of #2 with a spin on my own oil.
