I'm tentatively down for that, although it's going to be tough to do 2 weekends in a row (Watkins Glen).

Anyone planning any track days in the next 2 weeks? Just found out I'm going to be shipped out to eastern europe for the entire June - now trying to get as much as I can before the exile...

i will be attending the june2-3 Advanced Driving School at mosport which is organized by the BMW Canada Club.

its not a "track day" per say but as a novice, i'll take all the instruction i can get especially on a grand prix track.

Then come out for May 22nd at Mosport! Or maybe we can get M3-Mike to setup another cool road trip.

And here's a list of all the events for May in North America: http://trackdb.racingsciences.com/in...lendar/2012/05

That is a great offer. I think they limit it to new members only, and it would be difficult for me to claim that status after being a member for 4 years. I'll sign up for that anyway.

Too bad I have big meetings both days. May 22 is definitely no, but I am trying to get 24th cleared.

I'd like to hit up Calabogie for the 26th if anyone is interested in going there? Would be fun to drive up on Friday along my fav roads and then track on Saturday and then more twisty's on the way home on Sunday. If there is interest I will organize...

I too am away in Europe in June so I too will miss some of the other events planned that month.

Looks like both May 22 and 24 are impossible for me, so I will really try to make it to Calabogie on 26th (drive there on Friday and back on Saturday night). Please let me know if anyone ends up going.

By the way, Trillium has Solo 1 event tomorrow at DDT - has anyone been to these? I want to check it out, but if it's not much actual driving time, I'd do something else.

Do any of you guys know a place where I can get my tires rebalanced TODAY!

I'll be heading to Mosport tomorrow if I can get them balanced.

For some reason my new APEX wheels have dropped all the wheel inner weights

Here's hoping a miracle will happen today.

Anyone going to the EA day tomorrow at Mosport?

[Jaypod]

Guess nobody went to the EA day today? Just heard there is some pretty nice hardware there today.
