Post up what dates you plan on hitting Lime. Also, why did you not like Summit? I hear this from practically everyone that's been there lol.

And to answer Cliff org question.. I'm planning for 6-10 days this year. Might be on the lower side because work might be a little more aggressive this year, and I also dedicated a couple weekends to O'Neil Rally School.

Have you been to the Rally school before? I've have been wanting to try that for some time. Could you post after attending to let us know how it is?

I have a half dozen friends who have taken the 3-day school at Dirtfish up in Washington. Their school is the west coast equivalent of O'Neil's school. It is the ultimate car control training course. It's on my wishlist but at $3200 (with Black Friday pricing) it is not inexpensive.

Been to a rally school once before and really enjoyed it. I feel like one day isn't enough though, so this year (early 2020) I'm going to their winter driving course as well as their 5 day course. I really want to UP UP my driving abilities. From what I understand, rally school really helps in all aspects of driving and track skills such as road course, gravel, drifting, etc etc...

Going to be a good season for me, have a few days booked at grattan and gingerman, mid Ohio and hopefully making a trip South to ncm and barber! I'm sure I end up at my local tracks Autobahn and Blackhawk Farms a few days as well. Hoping to have a repeat of 2017 where I squeezed in 18 track days that season.

Signed up for Big Willow(first time) in February with Speed Ventures. Will most likely hit Streets of Willow and Chuckwalla again before summer. Maybe Chuckwalla a couple times- I love that track. Trying to plan to get up to Laguna Seca in the fall, fingers crossed!

Two events at Roebling scheduled for January, then Road Atlanta in February, VIR in March so far. Probably won't be taking the VW unless the weather forecast is questionable. Still looking for a new track toy to replace/supplement my M3. Almost bought a GT350 last Friday....

If my car is ready, I'll see you at Roebling. I'm down in Jacksonville.

Who do you go with at VIR? I plan on doing at least one HPDE there this year.
Trackdaze and BMWCCA. Trackdaze requires no membership and is more diversified in terms of both marques and driver experience, however BMWCCA has a more structured approach for the first timer or novice.

I dislike Summit Shenandoah but love Summit Main. Shenandoah is a VERY busy track, which by itself isn't an issue, but I found that it has zero rhythm. Eats up tires as well and I just don't find myself grinning near as much as other tracks.

Totally agree! Not to mention, the paddock area for Shenandoah can't handle any volume of cars in bad weather - if it rains and you're in the grass, you're SOL.
