Has the code been created for volunteers to register for Friday lapping?

We still have a few spots left at our Race and Licensing School, but we need to cut off registration soon! If you are still sitting on the fence, and you are not sure whether you should take the school, this one is the one to take! The weather is almost guaranteed to be great, and a somewhat smaller group will give you more time with your instructors, and even more opportunity to learns and get familiar with your car. You are pretty sure that you will never race, and therefore you won't need a license? Most of us who are regularly on track said such a statement at one time. Reality is that this school is not all about a license, but about learning how to control your car at speeds well beyond of those attainable on the street. Once you have become confident in your skills, any unforeseen emergency at road speeds is handled with aplomb; therefore, the skills obtained at the track directly transfer into your everyday driving on the road. Furthermore, taking the school allows you to decide whether or not you should be applying for a race or a Time Attack License - it keeps your options open should you decide to compete eventually. Lastly, taking the school will give you green wristband status immediately when coming for a hotlapping day. Register, show up and immediately hit the track instead of having to go through the mini-school and being restricted for a while. Click on: 2024 WSCC/SFR Competition License School (motorsportreg.com) and sign up for April 27th and 28th!

Update: The parts are going to start arriving this week and the crew from Advanced Sim Racing will arrive on the 22nd and by the 26th they should be all up and running HOWEVER the rooms they are going in will not be ready for them until 2nd week of May so we can't start renting them out until the rooms are ready.

Selling my excellent/mint condition Zamp full face helmet. Flat black in colour. Only selling as I prefer open face for AutoX. Includes helmet bag .$100.

And then there is this from the WCMA Sporting Regulations. It's all about using common sense and being safe.

No, there is no rule saying that you can't bring extra fuel to the track. Obviously the fuel needs to be stored in an approved container. Just as a quick reminder to everyone who does so: As the day gets hotter and the sun shines on the jerry cans, they will pressurize dramatically. Please relief that pressure on a regular basis - every race weekend I see plastic containers which have taken on the shape of a soccer ball due to the excessive pressure inside.

Working on it as we speak. Still some wrinkles to iron out regarding reserved number being locked in. As far as the schedule for HPDE/Track Day events, they will coincide with the race weekend dates as shown on our Website Calendar:

Any summer tire, Bridgestone re71r, Dunlop starspecs (of any model), RS3/4, falken azenis etc will suffer from extended periods in the cold. the cracking usually only occurs in severe cold (-10 or colder as I’ve seen) and all summer tires fall off/ lose adhesion and become slower after freezing. ideally a warm basement or at minimum a insulated structure to store them is required to keep them close to 0 or above.
