We had a big handful of 8s go to the free track event. Many were there as early as 6am (I heard this from other people who registered late too.. so I guess our 8s were pretty famous/infamous?). Doesn't hurt to be a bit overprepared

It was nice to meet dills, kersh, firstrotary and to see many familiar faces from our club on the track. I didn't stray too far away from my car (because of the creeping waiting line of cars) so I missed a couple 8s like nycqps's. Anyway, here are my pics.

Wow.. lots of 8's!! Looks like it was a great time, maybe a little chilly?? It's pretty cold up here in CT.

Happy birthday Chris!

track was no joke....the experienced groups had one instructor in front and then the rest of us followed the lines....so we were moving at a decent speed around the track.....good enough for 2 rx8's to spin out and a g35 to hit a wall

out of 5 runs, 2 of them were ripping around each corner. The other 3 where behind FWD cars....FTL.

At the straight away i hit redline in 3rd every time just before slamming on the brakes for the next turn. So much fun!

only 5 runs in total? well, I left after my 2nd run so ...

man, I wanna see the pics of the crashed G35 I think I know which one, cuz I think I saw only 1 G35, it was Grey, I think. driver is ok right ?

The track day was great ! my first run had an instructor with me (cuz I was leading pace car) He taught me lots of stuff. like how to cut time, turn in corners, braking, where to accelerate/decelerate. on my 2nd Run I fell to the last place because I was trying to "follow/learn" what the instructor has taught me, Damn that white Mazdaspeed 3 he thought that I cant catch up. blah. maybe next time.
