View Full Version : Englishtown Road Course 10/16
Hi guys,
I went to the Etown free track day in the beginning of June. It was fun but too hot for a track that has no garage or shades to cool down. I'm organizing a open track day on October 16th.
It's $75 for the whole day. Everyone should get 4-5 sessions of 20minutes each.
There will be no instructors, but cars will be grouped based on modification and experience. Drivers will be asked to attend a safety meeting. And cars will have to pass tech inspection.
The registration is open to all drivers now and the available spots are limited.
Here is the web site for the event. Be sure to read the FAQ and tech sheet.

How many cars do you expect to get for this? I'm also worried that my harness won't be legal unfortuneately. I'll forward you some pics of the installation of that.

I think that I will take the RX-7 to this event. The price is pretty reasonable compared to other HPDE events.

There are drifting events at the Etown road course. The format of the 10-16 event is for road course only.

I do have a list. But I'm not sure who's from TST.

The cap is 50. We will need to reach this number to be able to rent the track at this price.
Make sure if you are using a harness with a stock seat, the harness should be mounted to a roll bar at about shoulder height.

I have a Sparco Sprint with a 5 Point Harness. But the rear belts aren't mounted at shoulder height as no one makes a harness bar or roll bar for this car. I have to measure the angle they travel down to the rear seat belt bolts to see if it meets spec or not.

It should be no more than 10 degrees below the shoulder or the driver will move forward in deceleration.

This is exactly the kind of stuff I want to get into. I hate living so far away. :(

I expect most cars to be street cars.
The minimum safety requirement is a helmet.

I think I'm going to get in on this.. Is there any firm sign up sheet or is it just show up?
I've got a small oil leak in the AW11 I'm trying to track down but I should have it done way before the date.

this is a pretty good deal for anyone on the fence.
Me and some friends looked into renting the course but it was too damn envolved to get everything together and I'm not shelling out a couple grand only to wait for people to pay me back.
I have a 2 day HPDE the weekend before, so I'm not sure what shape the car or myself will be in, but if I can get in on this with a weeks notice I'd be down... LMK
etown's road course is so amazing.
