Crap I have to install my oil cooler(s). So what kind of speeds are you guys getting on this track with street tires and 300-400 whp, 2800-3000 lbs wet (no driver)? Every thing I read about it says it's "fast". I've seen some pretty nutty vids but you can never tell how fast they are going. I just hope everyone's brakes and engine fluids are ready to get hot.

I just signed up. Its my first time, so I hope I don't embarass myself. haha. I would of loved to take my FD, but it won't be done. But I've always wanted to see what it's like on the track, so I figured I'd take the 8 instead. Should be fun.

Big Willow is a very very fast track. I haven't done it either. I'm rolling for 7Stock. Hopefully Bern would allow non-mazdas for the track event.

That's a BIG NEGATIVE!

This is an ALL MAZDA event!

We will have parking for your Vette somewhere on the premises.

Excuse me. I am Mahzda owner at heart. That should count

Besides...I see that 60ish out of 130 slots have been filled. I'm sure you could fit me in there somewhere.

Neg on the 130 spots as well. It's not going to be THAT packed. Besides, we have to leave room/time for the special vehicles that are going to be running around at SevenStock15 as well!

and before you ask dinobot, those special cars will NOT be a vette or piston powered. Nobody cares for them at SS.

It might be Wackys 3!

Saw questions about Ride-Alongs and no answers???

Yes, we will be having Ride-Alongs ALL day -- MazFest 2012 | Saturday September 29th | Brought to you by the MOCC --- since they were always a "Track Day" thing and Sevenstock was not.

Last year at Cal Speedway we still had people waiting for rides at the end of the day -- so DO remember to sign up in the morning.

I shall start my boycott biiiiaaatch! Most FD's are LSx powered anyway. Just give in to the dark side.

Fine fine...

Wacky's car can't make turns so why put it on the track?

I'll be filling in one of them spots with my FD within a week from now. Lsx powered rx7's are nice, but breaks the rules of what it really means to have a rx7 that's rotary powered.

Mazdatrix, the question was more directed at ride-along in GENERAL TRACK PARTICIPANTS vehicles, not so much the assigned RIDE-ALONG program. There will be NO RIDE ALONGS ALLOWED in GENERAL TRACK PARTICIPANT vehicles, but you will surely be allowed a RIDE-ALONG in one of the 15 or so dedicated TRACK VEHICLES that will be there to give RIDE-ALONGS.
