[QUOTE="fabianyee, post: 610568, member: 6"] If I recall correctly, we had a joint track day with the HCOC boys (Honda Car Owner's Club) way way back in 2003. I wasn't there but I recall it was 2 hr session, 1 hr of 1/4 mile drag on the front straight and then 1 hr of track time. Track fee is much cheaper back then, so cost reference is irrelevant. After that, various attempts to organise track days but all fell thru due to high cost. And there isn't that many track junkies to make the number. I would disagree to that, bump only happens if ego takes over... Move aside safely if u see faster cars coming from behind, or best to put your arm out and finger 'point by' (either to left or right) so that they know where u want them to overtake u. Don't overtake into corners especially for newbies. Don't follow too closely to the car in front. And the track is quite long, find your own empty slot to play... Don't go bunch up with the cars ahead or around u, fall back a bit and u'll be surprised there's space to run solo for quite some time. This is the same thing I convey to the HPC participants during the driver briefing and also the debrief after every session. [/QUOTE]
