You can also attend high peformance driver training schools by the BMW club, SAAB club, Trackmasters, etc..Great environment to learn your car at Mosport and Shannonville.

CanJam is an awesome shop but sadly, Stewart has not been accepting rotary business for quite a while, since becoming the Subaru rally team constructor.

Ballz, what kind of FC are you looking for?..........I'm considering moving on to a new project.......

Welcome Andru,
Solo 1 can be a bit 'deep end' for some as well - $90 per event, higher possibility of mechanical damage, etc. You would need to do the school at the beginning of the season before competing. It is a blast though...........
Solo 2 (autocross) is also very popular, with an event around the GTA pretty much every weekend during the warmer months. Great venue for sharpening car control skills. Link to our series:

Other events can be found through the calendar, as well as the CASC-OR site. Too bad there's six months of waiting to endure first.

Looking for an GXL in good running condition. Not too picky about an S4 vs S5 nor interior since I'll likely remove most of it.

Wondering if I've seen you at a PITL event...

The video for last year's Ottawa Meet can be found here:

The link is good for about a week or 20 downloads, whichever comes first. Would those who would download it give andru a day to get it for himself (if he wants it) before dl'ing it...

Unfortunately, the season's prett much done.



Curtis, now that I think about it, I think I've admired your FC at a PITL on several occasions! I don't think I'll need to run with my head sticking out the sunroof though.

Hmmmm............. admired the car, not the driving - ...........hmmmmm

Did you bring out the G35 to one event? I remember someone doing a very good job of flinging about an Infiniti at one of the events - not easy with a big car and smallish lot / course.
Anyway, if you're interested in the car, PM me........before I buy more parts!!
