Re: Winter blahs? Come play at Team O'Neil Rally School
Ready to roll, registered and ready with 220+ ft-lbs, 250 whp of RWD goodness, new Blizzak LM-22's, Brembos, 6MT w/JWT FW and stage 2 clutch, COBB AP...ok, it's still a handful. Ever try to drive a 350Z in the snow? This is better, but not much. I might have been able to give it a run with my 1967 Caprice 327 with snows from the 70's
Just trying to convince myself I can really drive this car well in the snow 6 Winters have shown "it depends" but I drive it four seasons every year, so wth...looking forward to the Feb school!

You've convinced me....signed up for late Feb. How early do you really get started - I'm hoping to just come up that morning....

I think around 8:30 at the hotel. Unless you know the area it can be easy to get lost, so I'd suggest coming up the night before....JC_MS3 wrote:You've convinced me....signed up for late Feb. How early do you really get started - I'm hoping to just come up that morning....

This school was sold out but we just had a couple of cancellations, so there's a few open spots and registration is still open: https://www.motorsportreg.com/index.cfm ... 417DAD7A37

Noah posted more pictures, videos and time trial results at http://www.naaclub.org/.
Wow! I thought I didn't stand a chance with all these Quattros around, but the Corolla did so well!!!
Only 2 of the instructors did a better time! I LOVE my old Toyota (and its Blizzak tires ) !
