So are you going to drop up on Saturday?

ALM3 · 10-20-2009, 09:22 AM

Ya hooo I am coming this weekend too. I have my room reservation and just registering now. I will have my lawn mowing set to side discharge again this weekend so that I don't have to cart the bag around with me.

I am completely agree with Gearhead999.
I tried Shannonville's track, it is a flat field, as long as you don't drive to fast and it will be fine. Calabogie is a classy track, very nice elevation and scenic track, problem is too advance for me. My last experience at Calabogie was drove with an racing instructor and completely following his instruction.
Calabogie's track really require some expert advise such as Gearhead999 or racing instructor. Once you drive with an experience racer, you will know the difference with Calabogie and Shannonville.

haha - thats what I figured!

Gearhead - Thanks for arranging - Calabogie is an absolutely amazing track! I am sure some pics of the day will follow. Who's knows maybe even a vid of me passing a GTR with over 800hp!

For anyone that has no had an opporunity to track at Calabogie - you have know idea what you are missing. Amazing facilities and the track is unreal!

Gearhead999s · 10-25-2009, 03:50 PM

What a great weekend!
Everytime I go & do a trackday @ Calabogie,I wonder why I bother going to other tracks as they fall well short of what CMP offers.More details to follow later when I have a chance but in the mean time here a few photos.

Myself & Jaypod
