    Sifu - got it Thanks, it is much appreciated.

    As for numbers I won't know until Friday, with the current numbers we will probably only go for 24. If i get confirmation for 3-4 more then it will go to unlimited.

    As for break down I think it may be 2 groups or else free for all, not sure until numbers are finalized. It will be fun either way.

    Cool, no doubt about that, I was just curious about instructors and the like. And if it is going to be similar to the BMW School format. Sorry for all the questions. My first beyond.ca track day.

    Well the story is that is WAS supposed to be around 150-170 dollars, but we have 3 instructors there so it will cost about 170-190ish. The instructors are really expensive and they are there to help on a first come first serve basis. USE THEM!!!! They have tons of good info. They will go out and sit with you while you drive the track and tell you what you are doing wrong, how to drive the apex and where to pick up speed etc. They will definitely make you go faster if you are willing to learn. There is no real format in the instructing... it's a laaping day where there are instructors to help you with what you want... just ask and they will be willing to tell you how to do it and help you with it. Trailbraking, left foot breaking and stuff like that will not be taught unless you are really good. If the instructors are busy you can always ask the guys who have a lot of experience and they will gladly sit with you show you the course etc. ON your first few laps if you have never driven with us or on this course you will have to get someone to go out with you just to show you what to look out for.. this person would preferrably be an instructor.

    Cool, I thought there'd be more instructors, so hopefully they don't get hogged the whole day.

    Any approximate final numbers on cars?

    So everybody is on the honor system for whether or not they've been on the track before? Also, how many cars on the track at a time?

    Cars on track a t a time will be min of 12 to max of 20 I think... not sure yet, that depends on numebr as well.

    I know who has been on the track and who hasn't yet. You can tell right away because Vince or I know everyone's experience for the most part.

    Count me in as an instructor for the morning. Rage asked me to show up so I'll be there in the morning to help. Should be fun

    Fuji, are there noise restrictions in place? Because due to emergency work on the wastegate, there's no muffler when the wastegate opens, and it's umm... quite loud .

    How loud is that? I'm quieter than some of those muscle cars at Secret Street... not by much I don't think.

    I haven't really heard it from the outside just yet though.
