Anyone in the SoCal area who wanted to try a track day is invited to drive with the Porsche Owners Club (www.porscheclub.com) on July 30/31 at the Pomona Fairgrounds (very close by and its a real road course, not cones in a parking lot - I was hitting 105mph on the back straight in my stock 2.5L in March).

Very affordable. $150 for the day or $265 for the weekend. All you need is an approved helmet, long sleeve shirt, pants, and closed toe shoes (tennis shoes are fine). No fire suit, roll cage, extinguisher, etc is required for driver ed (known as PDS) so you don't have to modify your street car. FREE highly experienced instuctors are provided by the club to teach you the proper driving technique, racing line, and track safety.

This is how I got started in January and now I'm addicted!
