Ok....so I know there are a few people on IA that have expressed a real desire to drive their cars on track. I know it isn't for everybody because some people just don't like to drive hard/fast but if you want to get on track my friend that owns an organization called Tracks Unlimited is doing an event at Atlanta Motorsports Park in mid November. Its a REALLY good deal, $399 for TWO days! Most two day events at AMP are $500-$600 so this is a steal. I will be out there taking pictures of everybody on track and there will be 10+ very experienced driving instructors there to help as well. You don't need racecar aero, or a big brake kit or wait till you get your coilovers on....as long as you have plenty of tread on your tires, material on your brake pads and quality brake fluid you are good to go. Hope to see some of you out....

DATE: November 17-18th

Info on the track:

Atlanta Motorsports Park (AMP) is a road course designed by famed Formula One architects, Hermann Tilke. Instead of the typical country club with a golf course at its center, at AMPs heart will be a 2-mile road course with elevation changes, technical course layout, high speed straights and two ‘signature’ corners designed to pay homage to famed European race courses; Belgium’s Spa-Francochamps and the iconic ‘Carousel’ from Germany’s Nürburgring. Incorporating these most famous and exciting of all of motorsports only hints at the lengths AMP has gone to in creating this world-class facility.

Helmets required??

For the event in the OP yes helmets are required. If you do not have one AMP rents them for a small fee.

...Saturday I will have a spare one with me for passengers during ride alongs

"For the novice and intermediate driving groups, you must wear a helmet certified with the M or MA class [or better]. For the advanced driving groups, you must wear a helmet certified with the SA 2000 or SA2005 class. Any other helmet will not be approved, and you will not be allowed on track. Helmets will be checked at tech inspection before your car is allowed on track."
