So I went to the CASC Ontario open house today at a Newmarket shop today with the intention to sign up for the time attack school as an excuse to get on the big Mosport track... I ended up signing myself up with TAC, the whole Autoslalom series, and picked up the SA2010 helmet I talked about so many times before for $330 tax in. :facepalm: So I finally am going autocrossing after all these years.

Little Pig will carry the number 138 in STC class because of that flywheel and clutch. :facepalm:

So let's see how much I spent today to finally get my foot in the fun:

TAC membership: $50
Autoslalom series registration: $35
Magnetic vinyl for series sponsor decals and car number: $50
Bell SA2010 full face helmet: $330
Total: $465
Seeing a glimmer of hope of being competitive: Priceless

Don't say that, your camry will be around for a long time lol.

I wonder if prices are around the same for Southern Florida. I am planning on autocrossing the Coupe. They threw you in a different class just for a aftermarket flywheel and clutch?

events start in the GTA this weekened

PITL - www.wiredmotorsports.com/pitl runs on saturday - 40$ includes lunch

BMW Trillium - http://trillium-bmwclub.ca/content/autocross starts on sunday and is 40$ since you're a TAC member

couple of matrix/vibes have run at PITL the last few years
$50. And that's because Trillium's #2 doubled as provincial #1.

Next month I'm going to run the two hosted by TLMC. Theirs are cheaper too - both events and membership. :naughty:

BUT, I ordered a set of Hawk HPS for the whoa part with new brembo blanks to go with it. Now to figure out what IHE work to do to get me some of that go. Oh and for whoa, running with AC on seems to help. :lol:

This is the big track info that was posted in TSC (Toronto Subaru Club)


Mosport Track Event 2012 Schedule
Kensai Racing, Canada’s Premier Motorsport and Performance Enhancement salon will be organizing 4 (four) lapping days throughout 2012 at Mosport Grand Prix Road Course. We would like to formally invite all interested participants to join us in our 10th year at one or all of these exciting and informative events. Whether it’s your first time on a race track or you’re an intermediate/advanced driver we are confident that there is value in these events for everyone.

2012 Schedule

May 21st Victoria Day Long Weekend Monday

July 2nd Canada Day Statutory Holiday

August 6th Civic Day Long Weekend Monday

September 3rd Labour Day Long Weekend Monday


All event include safety/corner marshals (the only event that is properly marshalled), stand-by ambulance with paramedics, and on site tow truck.

The structure is quite simple; we break into two groups, Intermediate Group and an Advance Group. We limit the groups to approximately 30 participants per group to ensure the safety and enjoyment of our guests. Each group is on the track for 25 minutes per session with 5 minute breaks between groups for track maintenance and other related tasks.

Passing signals are mandatory for all groups. Pass zones for the Intermediate Group are: front straight, back straight and between corner 3 and 4. For the Advanced Group passing is allowed anywhere on the track (please exercise caution and common sense). Due to nature of the passing structure in the Advanced group, we recommend that only experienced drivers with knowledge of proper passing techniques and have had proper instruction participate in this group.

We do not perform a formal technical inspection as part of the fee for the day, but, we do highly recommend you have one performed by a qualified technician one as specified by PCA, FCA or BMWCCC. If you have questions about technical inspections please contact Kensai Racing and we can assist you in this matter.

Helmets are mandatory for driver and passenger.

If you are interested, please email [email protected] for the registration form and once filled with your information and fax back to us at 905-470-0945. We also send out reminder 2 weeks prior to the event.
