Yes!! Everyone at the track that day is required to sign a waiver. See everyone out there!! P.S. Last year we lost a lot of pylons over the few winter lapping days so if you could bring a pylon with you that would be greatly appreciated. Hope to see you there. RE: Winter Lapping Jan 22nd TMP - NefCanuck - 01-22-2011 Just a heads up Nik, if you or your buddies find a beige rear passenger mat, that's mine I was there last weekend with the SVTOA - Toronto club for a private winter driving session lapping day and the track conditions weren't the best (too much snow ironically enough) Despite some laps by loaded SUV's to try and tramp down the snow when I got out there, by lap three: lowered car + bodykit + overagressive traction control = me ending up off course stuck and it took twelve folks to get me out of there, even with an instructor behind the wheel of my car But no harm no foul as far as I can tell to the car so it was all good (and doing it on a track is much better then ending up off road off a highway late at night) NefCanuck RE: Winter Lapping Jan 22nd TMP - NikiterZTS - 01-22-2011 ^^Sweet. Should of told us. I would have came out. How many fords came out? If you guys come out tomorrow you can get a ride in the rally Subaru around the track. I'm bringing my helmet cause they won't let you in without one ofcourse. RE: Winter Lapping Jan 22nd TMP - NefCanuck - 01-22-2011 Final numbers were 15 cars IIRC, that was actually better given the conditions that day, lots of space between the cars meant more room in cases of "oops" Doubt I'd be able to make it tomorrow but have fun. P.S. Nik, just so you know there was a Subaru that also went off track and had to be yanked out by the groups unofficial tow vehicle (A V6 powered Escape that was bombing around the track like it was dry ) The SUV's with real winter tires and 4WD were the only vehicles that didn't have any problems, but a 2010 BMW 335 acquitted itself pretty decently for the most part.

It is what it is my man. You don't really need to prep your car for this. Some come RE: Winter Lapping Jan 22nd TMP - Mystake - 01-23-2011 I'd be coming from Ottawa, so I myself need prep, lol. RE: Winter Lapping Jan 22nd TMP - NikiterZTS - 01-23-2011 Wow. What a track day today that was RE: Winter Lapping Jan 22nd TMP - NefCanuck - 01-23-2011 Any sign of the mat? (I bought a replacement anyways today but I was just curious if it was spotted at all) NefCanuck RE: Winter Lapping Jan 22nd TMP - NikiterZTS - 01-23-2011 Nope, no mat. Tons of people went off the track today. Lots and lots of snow and then it was ice racing. We had Ford Excursion pulling everyone. I had to be yanked 3 times in the period of 6.5 hours that I was tracking there. And of course unforgettable ride that Crazy Leo gave me in his rally STi was my high light. Probably 6-8 laps of pure fun. |
