[Tires23]

No problem. If you want to check out more track info, see here http://www.shannonville.com

Helemts are not mandatory but won\'t hurt if you bring one for safety reasons.

We always tried to keep the fun as safe as possible.

no passing in corners, only at the back straight and with signals from the driver in front.

We\'ll briefly explain all rules before we start.

Drivers who are interested, please contact us to reserve a spot.

$75 before July 1st.
$100 after/ at the door (not if we have more than ~30 cars)

[bubba1983]

I think it would be kinda kewl to have a few cars do the skid-pad to find out how much lateral G\'s they can pull...to see if these suspension mods really help!(sway-bar,strut brace,springs,tires)

[bubba1983]

LOL no doubt!

i hope to have a few guys from the local coffee shop here in town i hang out wiht all go to this lappin day!!

common guys...anyone wanan come to this? itll be fun

members from TAC, TSR, TSC have been invited also...

[whodilly]

How many cars will be on the track or how many can be on the track at once?? Don\'t want it to be too busy.... Can\'t get my \'fastest laps\' in!

Wow this sounds like fun... are there timers and such that record your lap times?

Also has anyone been there before? How are the track conditions? I can drive on Toronto roads everyday and not pay for it. Are we talking smooth roads or bumpy?

[bubba1983]

roughly 30-40 cars are expected in attandance....its a full 3 hour track time, classes aren\'t sectioned together....shannonville is a technical track,a nd there is alot of runoff in teh corners...incase something were to go wrong, jus ride teh grass

Maximum of 25 car on Track, it wont get too busy, cause the full track is quite long.
There wont be any timer or recording for the lap time, but you can bring a friend and a stopwatch and time it for you. The track conditions are excellent, lots of runoff area. Is a perfect Track for the first timer.

If anyone interested, deadline for the prepay is July 1st.

[whodilly]

Who\'s in on this??? I\'d love to go out there and put my car through it\'s paces.

[bubba1983]

im in..im going tomorrow to pay my money actually....
got a buddy wiht a stang also going that day with me!

[bubba1983]

if by some chance u get more than 25 cars....what do u intend on doing martin?

[Tires23]

We will have around 30+ cars at the event. The rule says only 25 cars are allowed running on the track at the same time, so we\'ll keep track and hold off the others. But there\'s very little chance you\'ll see 25 cars running at the same time.

Thanks

[whodilly]

That track day was AWESOME! Damn it was a load of fun driving on the track... unfortunately I need new tires now!:p

Hey autoexe and Sabio, do you think you can send me your pics? I want to see them!

[SABIO]

OK.. A couple pics and a video are in the pic and Vid section..

But yes... What a blast:D Everybody should do this at least once. Driving the Mazda hard makes you appreciate what a incredible car it is.... Quick, Nimble, Awsome Brakes.. Handles even better.

Many thanks to Billy and the Tires23 crowd for making this a great day for everyone. Hopefully another day can be arranged for the Fall. Everyone should come out.

[bubba1983]

god damn that 4 hour drive home tho. Damn cotage country traffic tryin to get home. the trip from belleville to port hope SUCKED!!!

Great day, very impressed how the car handles. My poor poor tires tho...LOL

[wtom]

what\'s the fastest you guys took corners that were tighter than 90 degrees? say about 70 degrees?

i took one that tight at over 100km/h and i was skidding ... half drifting? towards the curb. i had the ABS going and the car slowed enough that i got the wheels pulling me away in good time.

[bubba1983]

LOL couldn\'t realli watch the speedo in the corners, too much going thru the mind on what to do next!

i will say, after my first 4 laps, i don\'t know who worked harder, teh car or me, cause holy crap that makes you sweat and tires you out so much!!!

by the end of the day i was so beat. May not seem like much, but your constantly moving in teh car, and not having racing seats...makes it even more intresting, haha

i could finally blair out the exhaust too haha....

[Tires23]

Thanks you all for coming!! It was a very nice day (thank GOD!) and all you guys ran so well~ didn\'t look like a first time to me...:p

We might be able to host another one before the winter. We\'ll keep you guys updated.

Thanks all

Billy
