Ever wanted to learn some high performance driving skills? Learn about apexs, late/early apexs, oversteer, understeer, throttle steer, threshold braking, and the driving line?

Actually some good friends of mine with the SE-R club are trying to put together an event at Big Willow in Southern California and are having some trouble getting their numbers. You can contact them for more info. Nissan SE-R should be a closer match for tCs too, instead of 350Z and 300Z TwinTurbos.

Here's a copy of the email I got below: Contact Carlos for more info as he's running it.
