Two day events usually run $300-400, depending on the track. Check out the ACNA website for the calendar of events and your local chapter.

Helmets and long sleeve shirts are required. Other than that, not much else. You need to be sure your car is in good condition, clean brake fluid, all lights working.

Yes, it's required on most tracks.

You don't know the half of it. After I had the corner balance and aggressive alignment on the rear setup a couple of weeks ago the car snaps into turns. I can get the rear end to throttle steer through the corners.

I've got some other archived video from Laguna Seca, Thunderhill, and a few other tracks. I'll see if I can post up some clips over the long weekend.
