Take My Money & Drive

Hey guys,

Im interested in taking my car to the track this summer. Theirs a track not to far away from me called Kayuga.

I've never tracked my car or have any track experiance. Im just wondering what i need to do to be ready and hassle free for the track.

I have motorcycle helmets as I do ride so is that good enough?

Also any tips and suggestions will be helpful as I am total newb at the track scene. Thanks

Memorize the track before hand from track maps, pictures, videos, etc will really help you once your on it. Especially if its a tight one.

Most tracks worth a crap will require you to take instruction before turning you loose. Make the most of it. Once you've gotten the hang of the basics practice consistency. Doing it right over and over. Before you know it you will have gotten faster. And be a better driver in general. Good luck and be safe.

Do you run 94 or 91 would it make a difference on the track times?
