Couple of new videos from Laguna Seca trackday
Just thought i'd share, was out there on Feb 24th & had the pro video setup on the car, multi cameras, GPS tracking etc. They put the fastest lap from each session up on youtube before they send you the full DVD, so here they are...
Session2 - 1:56
Session 3 - 1:53

As for the car, lots of mods, but running RE01-R;s and carbotech XP8 pads, upgraded fluid & lines, and girodisc 2pc front rotors. Had been working great, but think i outdrove them a bit (poor technique), had some pad smear after session3 that caused brake judder. Working on some brake cooling ducts, if that doesnt help then i'll need XP10's

Very nice. And the weather was good too- the two times I have done trackdays at Laguna the clouds opened up early on and the track never fully dried out.
I have been to Laguna twice, I paid $170 approximately both times, if I remember correctly. That price included four to five sessions, a pizza lunch and a few photos. Not bad, but not like the $120 I paid for Thill several years ago. Good time at both places nonetheless.

You just sign up and then show up. For this particular organization, it looks like they have another Laguna day in April. They'll do a visual inspection of your car, but the only special equipment needed is an approved helmet, long pants and closed toe shoes.

They rent helmets for $20 per event, and you can pre-fill your inspection sheet, its pretty basic.
For your car, if you never tracked before, then it wouldn't hurt to get fresh oil (i do a change 1 week before an event), and maybe consider better brake fluid & pads, the stock STI pads can fade even on the street.
