August 1st ZCCW Track Day at Pacific Raceways!
Reply to Marty not me if interested in the track day. I might even try to make the trip over :)
Hi, all... The ZCCW will be holding our summer Driving School / Track Day Event at Pacific Raceways again this year on Monday, August 1st. This year we will be joined by the Definitive Driving Club from Vancouver BC. The event format will be the same as we had last year, with an all day session including breakfast and lunch for the participants. Like last year, the more drivers we have attending, will determine the individual costs. First time drivers as well as returning drivers are welcome, and there will be separate driving opportunities for each group. Don at the Proformance Racing School proposes that the day will go something like this: ~At 8am we'll start with a group photo and then breakfast. ~After breakfast, the senior and more experienced drivers will take to the track for a critical walk through/corner study and then do some driving while the new and first time drivers will attend a morning ground school. ~After the morning ground school and lapping for the experienced drivers, the first timers will go out to the track for some safety drivers training and braking exercises. After this, the two groups will alternate track driving at this point. ~While the experienced drivers are having lunch, the first timers will have their turn on the track with their instructors riding along. The groups will alternate in approx.30 sessions and later in the day, both groups will run together until 5 pm or so. Don figures that everyone will get in around 200 miles in an all day session like this. This length of time driving will really help you get a good feel for the track and a good feel for your cars handling abilities. After the driving, certificates will be handed out, and you'll have gotten some serious seat time on the track! If you ask any of the folks that attended last Septembers Track Day, they'll tell you about how much fun it was and that this is an event that's not to be missed! Prices for the school/session will be somewhere around $400-ish for the first time drivers (this includes your own all day instructor) and $225-ish for the experienced drivers. Like last year, the prices should be a bit lower with a good club turnout. All cars are welcome! Make sure your car is up to the task of doing some spirited driving, and will be able to pass a basic tech inspection. The thing to do now, is to get the word out to all of our friends and let everyone know about a pretty cool opportunity that is quickly approaching!! Let's make this our best driving event ever! Email me asap to get on the driver list, ( marty@groovemerchant.org <mailto:marty@groovemerchant.org> ) and I'll be keeping everyone updated on where/when to send in their payments to Proformance. Zya there! Marty Marty Molloy ZCCW / NWDE / NW-Z / NWN 2005 Secretary/Z Car Club of Washington Moderator Z32 Portal, United Kingdom w) 425-259-4653 c) 206-437-0050 |
