      I'm not sure of all the details I'm not a member yet. I know that you get access to a lot of different races and track days

        Nice find. Sounds like a great outing, especially of you haven't been on a road course before.

          Second that on a nice find. I signed up.

          To try and answer Kids question on the benefits, joining these clubs get you access to several of the tracks we all know. I'm primarly interested in the Autobahn because it's so close to my house. I joined the Shelby club so I could participate in that club's weekend rental of the Joliet track. I've also considered joining LAPs which is another racing club, but has a price tag of $1500 for 6 track days at Joliet. Being a member of these types of clubs is about the best way of getting onto a track. Along with track access, you get the benefit of experienced drivers teaching you.

          Unfortunately they only have 1 day in October at the Autobahn for HSX. If you live north and interested in HSX they have the majority of the events at Blackhawk Farms.

          My brother-in-law and his brother are experienced racers, and I met a group of their racing club buddies recently. Being part of a group like that is cool because these guys have so much to offer a rookie.

            I just signed up, hoping I can still get in. Didn't notice the deadline of the 10th to sign up initially.

              I would think they will let you in because there is a 250 limit and there is only 150 signed up.

                      Driving on the Autobahn was a lot of fun, many thanks to the hosts for volunteering their time.
