Norcal Shelby Spring Sprint and Driving School
Seeing if anyone is planning on being at Thunderhill next weekend.
I'm going to be breaking in my new car and running in the beginner group. If you see me stop by and say hi it's always nice to put a name to a face. I should have Maier's pop up tent for shade so I should be easy to shop. http://i1307.photobucket.com/albums/...ps441igpcb.jpg http://i1307.photobucket.com/albums/...psmjbxvwoh.jpg |
Nice!
I was gonna try to swing up there and see that pile Weld and hang for a day. Will likely be Sunday if I can make it. Have been to several of these as a spectator/heckler and it really is a great scene and well run. Car looks killer. |

If I ever get over this cold I'll be there with this.

HECK YEAH!!! Come park with "us" -- Charlie has loads of great "advice" on what you're going to need....
I'll be there with one of Charlies' Mustangs http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/4TR_4417.jpg |
Awesome I'll try and park near you guys! I've been waiting for this weekend since last September when I got the mustang. Let's hope it all goes as planned :)

You'll have so much fun you'll go crazy!!
Don't be nervous - just kick back and enjoy it.... You'll be given an instructor - and if you just pay attention to what they're saying and take it all in... you'll have a blast. Be prepared to change and adjust tire pressures -- they're very important. Park next to us - we have tools and compressors and will be happy to lend a hand. Bring some water -- you need several bottles per day.... Food is available at the track. There's a WalMart right at the exit of highway 162 and I-5 - so if you have a cooler - take the chance to fill it. They sell Ice at the track - but it's triple vs WalMart. Don't forget your safety gear!! And print and bring with you - the tech sheet - and medical form etc. Will you be there Friday night?? Where are you staying?? We'll be at the Holiday Inn |

Greg prefers doing his maintenance at the track after stuff breaks.. |

Seriously though having the different groups makes it easy to learn and move up to different groups as you get faster. If you have never run Thunderhill it is a great track with plenty of runoff room in case you run out of talent. |
Awesome, thanks for being so inviting guys. I got 6 track days in last year but was with a CTS -V (ABS / Traction Control )
I've not been behind the wheel of a non-abs (manual) without traction control in some time, so i'm going to pace myself. I'm staying in Chico both nights, i went to college there and a friend of mine still lives in town so i'm staying with him and his family. It's another hour to the track in the morning but I want to catch up. Good point on the ICE / Cooler, I've done that before and end up spending 20 dollars on waters. |
