That's quite a list! Definitely add them to http://www.torontotrackdays.com/ will be handy for others who don't frequent this specific forum

Very interested in Mosport days as well if you can swing a group rate there or something. I tried asking last year and they gave me the cold shoulder. Hate dealing with Apex & the track said deal with Apex

I also really want to see that new GT3 U GUYZ!
You guys aren't reading my posts LOL!!!! We (Trillium) offers CTMP GRAND PRIX track events from LESS THAN $200 bucks for a full day!
Check out 'schools" tab in www.soBMW.ca and don't hesitate to email me at bill@trillium-bmwclub.ca for any questions. Cheers!

Hi Folks,
What better way to spend a snowy, freezing cold winter day than dreaming of your next track day! And you have to admit, you're looking forward to driving the GP track at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park.
There will be two groups with 20 cars in each - 30 minutes on track/30 minutes off. $475 for the full day includes lunch. Drivers must apply and provide a track driving history. For more details go to www.frankewald.com
or 519 501 8412



Please note, this event is only for drivers who are experienced with the big track. Sorry, but there are no novice spots available.

I was out on the New DDC last weekend and the improvements are great!The curbing was not completed and some of apex's were coned off but we were able to get a good feeling for the track.The new section flows well and extra width & the new pavement are welcome additions.It is faster than it was before as I was only using 3 & 4 gears in my M3.The DDC is a lot of fun

Ya I'm super jazzed for it, getting my new brakes installed friday then off to the track sat!

I liked the old one, but it was too small for our cars. The new one looks sick, faster but still has the same feel as the old one

This'll be my first event of the season. Don't have my BBK installed yet. That won't happen until 23 May. In any case, I don't think I will need them at the DDT in 20 minute sessions.

I'll have them on for my first day on the GP track! Yeehaw!

I find that the DDC is much harder than the GP track as there are only 2 major braking applications a lap vs many more on the DDC.I run my street pads on the GP with no real compromise in performance.

Ya I'm gonna try out stoptech's street performance pads with the st40 kit & see how it goes. I have pagid's but don't have time to bed them, want to see how the stoptech holds up stock & get used to the kit before I amp it up. Will probably run pagids on the GP, even though you're right there's more cooldown between stopping on the GP.

I have been running the ST Street performance pads in my ST60's and they work OK if you take it a bit easier than if you are on a race pad.A lot of people are quite happy with them but I guess I am somewhat aggressive in brake usage
