I will probably just do one. Most likely Saturday cause if I do both, I have to hear it from my wife.

It feels so old school. I've got my checks...gotta find a stamp and an envelope. The things I have to go through!

No joke. I was all ready with my credit card, and then read about the check. I don't know if I have any stamps, and haven't used a check in months. Things to find in the next two days!

Tell me about it and I haven't even ran on the track yet!

Man, I'm so psyched for COTA! I registered for the full weekend. I still can't believe we'll be driving on this track.

I'll be running with Driver's Edge at TWS in March, too.

Not sure if you can do the open track day...for solo qualified drivers only. But there's a wait list for the TDE event at TWS. Green and bluw always sell out fast.

I meant the for march 14, TX2k or something like that

dbyrd · 01-15-2013, 11:29 PM

What are the details re: the open track day? I'm not approved solo yet, but should be soon. TWS and COTA will be my first track days anywhere other than MSRC (5 events).

jml · 01-16-2013, 01:06 AM

@Bigjae1976

COTA should hire you as the drool meister....awesome details and vids, thanks so much. The suspense is killing me now. Have to wait fro PCA to get their act together, or for the June BMWCCA event.

Basically its open lapping. Cost is $150, show up at 12pm, start driving after 1pm. Come and go from the track as you please. Let me know if you are serious about doing it and I'll see if I can work a deal to put someone in the car with you as an instructor. Lots of instructors usually come to drive anyway, shouldn't be a stretch.

No problem. Just wanted to make sure that everyone knows its worth it to do at least once!

E92M356789 · 01-16-2013, 02:53 PM

I'm gonna try to hit up as much track time as my wallet can handle or until my wife finds out before going to COTA if I I'm able to sign up for it. LOL

bdaddylo · 01-21-2013, 10:57 AM

Advanced is full for both days.

Intermediate and novice is almost full for Saturday, but for Sunday there's +10 remaining for intermediate and 20 for solo.

E92M356789 · 01-21-2013, 08:31 PM

Signed up for the June 2013 COTA Event! Yessssssssssssssss, Now lets play the waiting game!

bigjae1976 · 01-21-2013, 09:35 PM

Does anyone know if the auto x is on the track or is it something they will setup in a parking lot.

The reason I ask is because the site says $55 for auto cross. Can you just register for the auto x?

Thanks.
