Default Open Track Day - December 10th @ The FIRM

Hello everyone,

This past weekend, on October 1st, myself and other F'r went out to the FIRM. The track at the FIRM is fantastic, very technical, tight and on the back straight we were able to stretch out the ISF's legs out to about 115-120 mph! I met up with Travis (unsure of CL username) and Kyle (Pushtape). Needless to say, we will be back - and I wanted to gauge interest within the Club Lexus community, as if we get more than 10 people to sign-up, they will give us a discount! Their typical full-day sessions run around $214, and if it's your first time out, they'll give you 50% off. Great deal.

Anycase, I wanted to get this thread started and get a list going to see who all would be interested for the December 10th Open Track day! I'll add some pictures below from our day on the 1st and some pics of the track and link to their website

http://gorally.com

If you're looking to register for the December 10th Open Track Day - please call the FIRM directly at (352) 473-2999. Mention you're with Club Lexus attending the 12/10 event. If you're a first-timer, you'll be eligible for a 50% discount, and if you're a returning racer bringing a first-timer with you, you're eligible for a 25% discount!

Thanks and let me know if anyone has any questions. I'm very excited to be able to bring our community together!

$107 is a nice price for an intro day at the track Even the regular price isn't too bad.. Interesting circuit. I like the banked turn. Too bad it's 750 miles away

Is this track-day invitation exclusive to F cars only or is it open to all members on CL? If I can get my new tire set-up ready by December, I'll join in on the fun.

Looks like we've got a head count of 7 people so far! Just need a few more!

The Holden is a member's car here? My cousin has one and I'm curious if he was out there.

Wasn't a members car. Just a guy that we met at the track. He's was from Jacksonville I believe!

I'm in for this (tentative). Does anyone know how much instruction they make you do if you've never tracked before?

No track experience required. No instruction required. Drivers are grouped together based on experience.

They turn a bunch of n00bs loose on the track without instructors/coaches? Yikes.
