Has anyone done an SCCA Track Night yet?

How was it? I've done two previous track days with another group (SCDA) and had a great time. The SCCA track nights are a lot less expensive and I'm thinking about signing up. I've read their whole site (i think i'd fit best in their intermediate group) and it sounds like fun, but it also sounds a lot more relaxed than what I'm used to. I'm worried that they'll allow too many cars per run group and that it might attract a lot of casual drivers of fast cars who won't be interested in pointing by "slower" cars like my Miata (especially since nobody will have an instructor riding shotgun).

Not yet, with it being weekdays and the closest track 2.5-3hrs away. But I'd love to give it a go at MidOhio if they come there.

Yep, it was fun. I did the beginner group in a slow miata on all seasons, and was slow. No issues on point bys when I did need to pass though.

In reply to bgkast:

Did you run with a hardtop or sans top?

Pop's just bought a 10AE and wants to attend the next track night, but can't get a clear answer on whether his bone stock car needs a hard top or a bar to run.

In reply to turboswede:

With the top, but there were other miatas (miati?) running soft tops with roll bars.

Tech was a checklist you filled out yourself.

According to my emails with Haywood, a factory hard top is enough for the events up here in the New England area. I guess there's special restrictions for njmp, though.

Crap. He's got neither and both are about the same money (for a bar that actually works at least).

You need a top or a bar to run. He can borrow my top if he wants to.

Thanks! I'll let him know and we'll see what direction he wants to go.
