Event Info:

Laguna Seca is a legendary 2.238 mile track in Central California, and one
of the two most in-demand tracks in the west. Come out with us and you'll
get the best track time per dollar value you'll see at Laguna. Test your
skills on the world-famous corkscrew and compare your times to those set by
the big names of ALMS, NASCAR, CART and the stars of yesteryear. Laguna Seca
is a challenging course best suited to intermediate and advanced drivers.

Note: Noise Restrictions at Laguna Seca: We are happy to say that this is a
92db day (rather than the usual 90db day)! Basically a guy sits off to the
right of the track and takes noise readings. If you go over the limit, you
will be black flagged and told to go into the pits and figure out a way to
quiet the car down. People with loud cars (RX-7's in particular) will need
to make adjustments for this event. The most effective and easiest
adjustment is simply lift off the throttle when you go by the sound station.
Another option is to add a turndown to the exhaust, which you can do with a
clamp-on. See this thread for more information.

There is no aftermarket rollbar requirement for this event, though we always
recommend one.

*Novices in this case are those who have not driven on a track before. If
you have previous experience on track and are comfortable driving solo, we
respect your decision on whether to use instruction or not.

**Note - Details of this event are subject to change.

What is the track time difference between here a Cal Speedway?
thanks

*sigh*....

***FART***...

Sorry, just noticed your question. A car that runs 1:45 at Laguna will run about a 1:55 at the Cal Speedway Grand Am config, roughly.

If you can get under 2:00 at Seca, I'd consider that pretty fast.
Novice drivers in FD's typically run 2:20 down to 2:10 on average.

That's damn cheap with the transponders!
Wish I were there! :P
