I dont have a trailor so I would be driving the car there (not sure if thats a good Idea or not) Any feedback would greatly appreciated, as I have zero experience with these types of events. Have never been on a track, and niether has the car.

I will be there. You might want to check with Ed to see if there is a certain spec / SNELL rating required. Not sure what the latest rating is. I bought mine from a motorcycle shop. We are not in a truly competitive racing environment so it's not that stringent.
Bring:
Sunscreen
Cooler with ice, water, and a sandwich.
Bring a car cover if you can in case it rains.
If you have a small folding chair you might want to bring that too.
Wear long pants.
Before you turn down the long road that leads to the track make sure you fill up with gas at the station on the corner. That station is about 6 miles away so make sure you account for that. You'll burn through a lot of gas at the track.
Don't worry about being green at the track. We're laid back and just out there to have fun. You'll really enjoy it. I'll be in a black Expedition with a black enclosed trailer. Stop by and say hi.
