I might be doing the Nov. 30th track day at Atlanta Motorsports Park. It is a charity event and offers different groups based on track experience. I plan on joining the C Group.

Here's more information: http://www.itrackms.com/events/hdpe/...ovember-29-30/

and here's the Facebook event link, which has more info on the groups and schedule: https://www.facebook.com/events/861156607227695/

Any others interested?

I've never tracked a car before but have always been interested. Been thinking about it since my son and I went there for the racing karts, that was a blast!

I would need better brakes before trying and not sure when this upgrade is in the budget I would also need a helmet.

Do the classes range in sequence for experience? A = pro, D = newb? If you go I may tag along as a spectator if that is allowed. I think I remember seeing signs when there for the karts that stated NO SPECTATORS.

I tracked my previous cars a couple of times in the past, but never my F30 and never on that specific track. My favorite was my 2007 Z4 M Coupe that I tracked in Dubai

A Group = Advanced (track regulars)
B Group = Intermediate/Advanced
C Group = Intermediate/Novice
D Group = Novice

I watched a couple of in-car youtube videos on that specific track and it looks beautiful though a bit unpredictable from what I've seen. I just wish if I had like an E36 M3 or other car that I didn't care much about! Still hesitant to take my F30 there.

I'm not too concerned about my brakes as I know I don't push my car to its limits to toast my brakes, I have M Sport (blue) brakes, and I have the maintenance contract (we all do)

I'm sure you can go there as spectator. I'll post here if I decide to sign-up!

Have been a few times to track days at AMP. Fun track, a bit too technical without being really fast. Barber Motorspartspark is better balanced. Road Atlanta is very fast and with a higher level of adrenaline... and risk if you are not mindful of the limits of your skills. Here's a short video I shot a few moth ago at a track day at AMP with my 18 year old son. Both car have been sold since then (replaced the dual duty Porsche by an F30 as DD + E46 M3 for the track) and my son traded his E36 M3 for an E46 ZHP to take friends with him to college...

I'll be around the track again in 2015 but have no more plans in 2014 and have a few things to fix on the E46 (yes, it is an SMG). It will be great to make new track buddies!
