Nasa has HPDE/open track event's and also Time trials, so that you can
get track times and open passing in HPDE 4. They are about as liberal
as anyone, some may say to the point of reckless so it's at your own
risk. Fun, our cars should start in TT4-5, with stock evo's and sti's.
With mod's they will likely bump you to TT3 and with race tires TT2 just
depends really on who is in your region and how fast the competition is.

Bruce and All,
I'm sorry about the tone of my note. Not intended. I'm interested in
getting quality track time in my daily driver. I am looking for
experiences specific to driver conduct as I feel this is a huge issue at
racing event and at some lapping day... This is a show stopper for me.
Also I would like to avoid skid pad and other exercises from a time and
abuse of tre perspecitve. I don't intend to argue their value. Again its
a potential show stopper for me to find out that I have a full day of
cone events at a driving event. I've done it and I will not spend a
whole day off from work to do it. I have other skills that need more
work.
As for experience, I am moderately experience.
