Apex 693 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 Akl. My bad. Bit embarrassed I didn’t understand the text talk. Have you done any track days before? Driver training days are always good to get into it, can be a bit scary turning up to a full on day first time around . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Simon* Report post Posted May 25, 2010 If you take $40 cash along with you to a playday event they have race instructors who will jump in with you for a set of laps. Usually Racing Ray Williams is there at the Taupo, HD and Puke events too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
