that was the last lap...gla d the camera stopped b/c i really started messing up b/c i was getting anxious   but i believe it was 5 laps which is like 16 miles of racing

hmm, doesn't seem like it's that many miles either, haha.

So is that all you got to run was 5 laps that event?

[BLU CIVIC]

yup, only 5...i did the Hyperdriv e which is only one HPDE session and it's only $50...since i can't afford a weekend, this is letting me get track time for cheap 

[Papa_Smurf]

damn! track time must be more expensive than i thought man.

but, you're also paying for the instructo r too, so i guess you gotta factor that in too.


there's a track called little talledega that guys rent out and go drive on all day. for like 12 people i think it's around $100, you can have 3 cars on the track at a time and you get it from like 8-5 with a 1 hour lunch break.

im sure of all the details, but it ends up being somewhere around 1.5 - 2 hours of track time per car

[Bus Driver J]

I dont know about that price but the tuner at Forged does his own driving school at Little Tally. Ive been meaning to go to one of the classes with him.

He does a lot of instructo r stuff at other track days too. (He has even helped me drop times on Forza, lol)
