We are going October 3rd.
THIS IS NOT RACING, ON THE TRACK IT IS FOLLOW THE LEADER I WANTED TO ADD THIS IN BOLD AND CAPS... I AM STILL GETTING A BUNCH OF DISCUSSION ON OTHER BOARDS ABOUT NOT WANT TO RACE THEIR CAR. JUST WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR.
The program will be formatted like last year. Price structure will be a little different. The price of the program will be $225 per person for early registration. After July 1st, the price for the program would increase to $275 per person. Hopefully this will encourage people to get registered early.
Here is what I have planned the 2nd Mid-Ohio track Day....
The day starts off with a short class room session, very brief, but very pointed.
We then move to the skid pad, where we practice what we just learned in the classroom. They have a honda civic that is set up on four castor wheels and hydraulics. The instructor can control the contact patches while driving to introduce an oversteer or an understeer situation at slow speeds (18 to 25mph), which simulates the same action at speeds of 60 to 70MPH.
Then we move to the autocross area, where we again apply what we learned in class. They have colored cones set up to show people where the turn in & exit points, apex are of multiple style corners and switchbacks.
Then, track time. The way he said it normally is ran is a "Lead,follow,pass". Each person in the group (5 to 6) gets a chance to follow directly behind the instructor through the course. Passing occurs on the back straight only. The instructor only goes as fast or as slow as the group dictates. The point is to make sure everyone knows the proper line......passing is a controlled environment.
We do not have to restrict the date to Camaro vehicles. Additionally, I’m sure I can get our marketing department to produce a pdf flyer for you to distribute.
Start PM'n me and or posting in the thread if you are going.

Don't let the price spook you, enter code CG2011 once you get all the way to the shopping cart check out. It will correct the price to $225.
I look forward to seeing some of you there. There will be multiple makes of cars there.
