I'm relatively free, so if Andrew makes it out, I probably will too. Won't be in the Miata though; my baby is undergoing some transformations, and will have a very different face pretty soon.
Nice, can't wait to see it

I've been there for go-karting. I haven't been to Englishtown to compare, but I heard that it was much better than E-town, especially in terms of speed and size.

If you're gonna do a track day, you're gonna need to prep the car a bit. Or make sure you have a bit of money for brake pads after lol...

Stock is fine. Prep as in change the oil before the event, check your tires, pads, coolant, etc.

I'll be there at D&B's tonight by 930 as long as at least a few of you will be there....

For the guy posting above about track days, NJMP is really sweet, I did a day there this summer. you can also go to Lime Rock in connecticut, it's a great track too, pretty much just as far away though....

Take a look at the track websites. A lot of places will require helmets, safety briefing beforehand, waivers, etc.

Also, if you are new to tracking, tell the people there beforehand. They'll be a lot more forgiving when you go wide on a turn and end up in gravel.
