AMS 2008 Track day Schedule / Registration

AMS Track Day Schedule and Registration For 2008


AUTOBAHN COUNTRY CLUB
JOLIET, IL

This year we are trying something a little more conventional. We are going to announce all three track days at once and give those die hards out there a chance to sign up for all three at a discounted Rate.

The Schedule will go as follows

Monday April 28th Full Course - $245.00 (150 Total spots)
Tuesday June 17th South Course- $200.00 (90Total spots)
Sunday September 14th South Course - $225.00 (90 total spots)

Register for all three events for $595.00


THIS IS OPEN FOR ALL CARS

Some nice things about the AMS track days:
• We will have over 15 instructors on site to help you polish your skills
• There will be a FREE Driving school for the beginner and Novice groups
• AMS will be supplying a free on site technician for any small repairs / diagnosis
• All registrants will receive a free AMS T-shirt at the track.
• You will receive a track day packet in the mail outlining the flag descriptions, Schedule and course overview
• Above all AMS track days are fun and safe. We offer sessions ranging from First timers to dedicated lap dogs

To sign up for the event please call Frank here at the shop. He will place you in your run group and take your track day payment. He can be reached at 847 709-0530 Extension 2017


With that said let’s get down to the Safety and equipment points:

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE GOOD BRAKES!!!

A quick note to everyone that signs up. we are placing you in a run group based on your experience not how fast your car is or how fast you THINK you are. This is a fun track day. Just because someone is faster than you in the straights does not mean that you are a faster driver.... it simply means your car is quicker. Getting put in a class that is too high for you will only slow down the other drivers in that class or worse...push you beyond your limits. Please trust us in our decision on what run group to put you in.


Basic AMS Track day rules
• four wheels off will END YOUR DAY ON THE TRACK!
• two wheels off will end that Session
• the second time you go two wheels off will END YOUR DAY ON THE TRACK
• The first session for beginner and novice will be a parade group/ on track classroom session
there will be a ZERO TOLLERANCE RULE on ALL RECKLESS DRIVING


THIS IS NOT A RACE!!!!!!!!!

Eric, come on, you're killing me! Its still December! I sign up now and I know this will be the longest winter ever.

No seriously, this will be great. AMS track days are the best. That way I'll have someone to flush my boiled SRF.

I'm going to have to order your cooling kit soon.

Will the tech be doing brake fluid flushes again for those unfortunate enough to boil their fluid?

You guys should seriously consider running 30 minute sessions on the full course. 20 minutes is really short. Something like a 30 minute session with one warmup lap under yellow would be much better, IMO.
