Hi all, I'm new here. My name is Jake. Some of you may know me as a moderator at CamaroZ28.com.

I have an '02 Z28 M6, and just enough racing experience to know that I want to do it as often as possible. Some CZ28ers recommended that I come over here to get the advice I need, since everybody over there seems to prefer drag racing. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/loco.gif)

I've tried drag, and it's fun, but autocross and open track days are a lot more fun! I haven't tried road racing yet, but to be honest I'm not sure how it differs from an open track day. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I've done some autocross. Only twice in the Camaro, but a bunch of times in previous cars. I'll continue to do those as opportunities arise, but my experience has been that at the typical Solo2 event, there are no passengers allowed at all, even instructors -- whereas at the typical open track day, instructors are commonplace and encouraged, especially for the new guys. I'm looking to do more than just have fun -- I want to improve.

Having said that, I really have no interest in buying or building a dedicated track car, or getting into anything involving serious competition. The whole point for me is to be able to enjoy the full extent of my Camaro's capabilities, which I can't do on the street. Besides, I don't have the money or the time to get into this anything more than casually! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
