Oh no, I completely get that bit. Which is why I wouldn't run in that class.

So basically it's setup to the fact that you can't mod first, and grow into them?

I understand why YOU do what you do, and it makes complete sense... But there is another thought pattern here. Guess thats another reason why AutoX isn't for me.

Aniceh - I think the best advice for you is to try everything and see what you like best.

Chris - If you worried about going full speed, you definitely want to be on a real track instead of AutoX.

Al - I completely agree with you. Real track was so much fun, I'm sticking with just HPDE's from now on.

Let me know when you plan to go again, will you stay in the beginner group, or move up to the next level now that you've done one before?

Ordered my replacement GoPro housing, Newegg ftw, cheapest @ $39.99 shipped.

It's not my choice. I will be in the beginner level until the instructor thinks I'm good enough to move up. Probably won't be going till fall at the earliest.

Keep me posted, I'd want to do this too. When you do it multiple times, do you get the same instructor for continuity?

It usually takes at least 2 or 3 weekends to move up to novice.

Generally no, New instructor every time. You can TRY to request an instructor, but no guarantees.

Do they keep a record of how many times you've been there before? Or is that for you to tell them when you get there?

Is this based on 3 weekends in relative proximity, or would the fact he does one every 6 months count still?
