Thanks for the info! I'm headed to the autocross on the 22nd, next stop after that is willow springs!

What a treat man, congratulations.

This event was through TMR(Track Masters Racing). Insurance is a gray area, that you have to be creative with, god forbid, an accident occurs.

Even if it is a "drivers education" like BMWCCA...good luck having insurance cover this, UNLESS, you are creative with how the claim is filed.

Have fun and best of luck at Willow's...please let us know your review as well!

Hey Dave,

I'm registered for the car control for GGC in a couple of weeks. Sign up!

oh and where'd you get your helmet? I'm having trouble finding automotive helmets to try on here in the bay area.

Going to sign up right now, should be fun on the skid pad.

You can order online, however you'll want to try them on first. I purchased mine at the store at Infineon(25 minute drive up there), big selection there obviously....believe they are open on weekends too.

Sizing can be tricky....

thanks.. yeah, gotta figure out the whole sizing thing... my heads probably a wierd shape with my luck.

maybe a motorcycle Bell will be close to an automotive Bell as far as fit goes..

i'll head ovr to cyclegear and see what they say.
