Hi thanks for your reply. When I started this thread almost a month ago, I thought with the over 5000 views in last years thread discussing everything including speeds up to close to 250 kph, and many expressing interest after CDNZ and I went, we would get 17 plus myself for this year. With Canadians boycotting travel to the US and this event being at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park where the Corvette C8R runs in the IMSA series should have helped. However, it has been said with the economy and this event being priced about the same as going to the Corvette Owners School in Nevada, interest has been weak. So far other than myself, we have:
ZoraD
D1J

I will wait to see if there is any further interest from the membership, if so reply here or send me a DM.
For more information and images refer to the start of this thread, or see the thread from last June below:

May be a dumb question but when you guys do a track session like this, are you guys just simply running the course with no insurance and risking your cars? I'd love to do the track when I get my Vette but I couldn't risk some other person running into me and totalling my car. I'm not worried about myself but can't control others on the track.

You are driving current model year Ron Fellows cars that are broken in not your own car.
More curious about private guys going to a track on their own like these guys. Trying to figure out if me driving to Calgary for a weekend of tracking might be an option. Will definitely want to do the Ron Fellows as well though
No track day insurance available in Ontario (and possible all of Canada) whatsoever. When you use your own car on the track start with a well run track event with driver training and strict rules for beginners. No one can pass you and you cannot pass any car without giving them the point by to pass. There is no reason for close contact in this situation. Ron Fellows is a good way to see if you like it as you use their car.
Ahh, makes sense thanks! I'd definitely want to do the Fellows school for sure and see how it's ran then. If there are for sure big gaps between cars and "virtually" no way for incidents to happen on a well run track then I'd love to rip out to Calgary for a couple of weekends a year and hit the track!
How big of a gap would there usually be between cars? My fear is some noob not paying attention and rear ending me.
I would be more concerned about the Walmart parking lot........
The "Gap" is small when someone is getting ready to pass you but you have already pointed him by so he knows, that you know, he is passing you. No passing is allowed in the corners - only on the straights until you are an expert racer. Just plan your first event with your own car with an organization that puts an instructor in every car for new drivers.
You have insurance in the Walmart parking lot though
Interesting, thanks for the info. Makes sense!
What Mr. Corvette is organizing is at Mosport using their cars, not yours. Not to stray too far off topic, but they also have track days put on mostly by car clubs. There are very strict rules about what you can and can't do. At some events there is no passing allowed where you exit the track if a faster car is pushing you from behind. At others there are signals that are given by the overtaken car to allow the overtaker to pass. All very safe. The way to hurt your car is by driving too fast or wreckless and going off track.
