A few photos from the Track

Just a few quick shots from Mosport last week. Only problem with these shots are the dirt on the car from driving through a construction site on my way to the track!

Well 1. its my event, so I don't worry about the "broomstick" test, and 2. I am so slow it doesn't matter... but seriously I have read medical papers that suggest that if you are in a street car, with the airbags and regular seat belts you are better off in a crash without a helmet. The extra weight of the helmet causes more injuries then not wearing one with all the gear in place. Now a car with a full cage, 6 point belts and a Hans device you should have your helmet on.

[commercial] The event schedule can be seen at www.dexterautosport.com. We have been running events for 21 years with minimal hassles and maximum track time. Our instructors are all full time professionals (ie. Pierre Savoy, Ken Wilden, John Powell, Terry DiFrancesco, and David Empringham) with no part time weekend warriors. [/commercial]
