Track Day Prep For Beginners (and a good reminder for the experienced drivers)

Podcast

In April I gave a presentation at the SCCA's 2023 Day of Motorsports at Nelson Ledges Road Course to help beginners with their track day prep.  I then recorded a similar version of the presentation to share with our listeners on our YouTube channel and now it's in audio form for the podcast.

Key Take A Ways:

  • What Is Car Prep
  • How To Prepare Your Car For An Event
  • What To Pack For Your Event
  • What To Do During The Event
  • What To Do After An Event

Looking for track day tires?  Bill can save you some money!  

The new Continental ExtremeContact Force 200 is out and is the tire everyone is talking about.  Head over to trackdaytire.com, add four ECF tires to your cart and enter code SnowVIP and that 4th tire ends up being free.  How awesome is that?  Great tires and saving money.  Plus, if you are in the Akron or Cleveland Ohio area, have the Atomic Autosports team mount and balance them for you.
