yesterday at nassau coliseum. it was an scca sanctioned event. for those of you who never saw one or participated, it was a lot of fun as a spectator.
many peeps trailered specials in like formula fords and home mades+ plenty of the street cars we love
to participate i believe you need $20 and an approved helmet(somebody add to this if they know)
some of the cars participating were:
rustangs(lots of spins)
vettes (not too good, especially c5)
miatas- did pretty well
slp firehawk firebirds(2) -ok
s4's- so-so,had trouble low end with turbo lag
last gen mr 2's-great at this
porsche 996 turbo-dealer plates. fooken asshole was slower then everybody, his drop dead gorgeous wife was on the sidelines watching. when he finished, i told her if he fucks like he drives, she could check me out, i feel sorry for you babe.

all in all a great free afternoon for me you should check 1 out. i was told to check out scca.org for listings
sorry about long post
barry

by the way, i did screw the porsche guy's wife, yum

I know the Central Florida region SCCA (http://www.eec.com/racing) provides loaner helmets, and every other SCCA santioned event I've been to (about 12 at this point) has had loaners.

The helmets sometimes leave a bit to be desired tho - as you have no idea who has worn them - heh. If you're gonna go to more than 1, buy your own. Just make sure it's the latest standard (Snell, DOT).
