Default TMS track days?

Maybe I missed it, but when are the next scheduled TMS track days for Cobras?

Dave , Thanks for asking,

The next "Track Day" at TMS is October 24. Anyone that is interested send me an email to don@panoztx.com. I will send you the information packet and enrollment forms. We will have the three run groups and everyone will get (4) 30 sessions on the track with instruction and lunch for $185. Call me at 817-430-2102 anytime if you have questions.
You need to per register early so you will have a spot and don't get left out. We had a great time the last track day and the October date will be even more fun.
Thanks, db

Boys and girls, the next "Track Days" are coming up soon on October 24th. We are getting some very interesting cars for the next event. Even if you don't drive you need to come see these hot wheels. Later, db

Racing Solutions, I don't know anything about the event at College Station at TWS in Oct.
The only thing I can comment on is what the Panoz Racing School does at Texas Motor Speedway. We are a full time racing school that teaches hundreds of drivers each year to drive fast on road courses. Our 3 day class is so extensive that you will receive a Regional SCCA racing license upon completion of our school. All of the Panoz Racing School Instructors hold a Professional Racing License. These instructors will be giving you feedback after each session regarding different driving techniques to be smoother and faster. We also have a special run group for Novice drivers. But no matter what run group you are in, with Panoz you will be running the full 2.4 mile Le Mans circut at TMS which includes driving on the high banks of NASCAR 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Hey, but here is the bottem line. Talk to anyone who has been to a Panoz Track Day or Racing School and see what they say.

Thanks.

RacingSolutions, that is pretty tacky slamming Don's track event thread with your solicitation. Don Barnes is a stand-up guy and his events are first class all the way. Don is also an active, contributing member of ClubCobra, TCC, the Shelby Cobra Ass'n of Texas, and other local clubs and events.

So far a search of all ELEVEN of your posts on ClubCobra, EIGHT have been nothing more than *free* advertisements for your business Racing Solutions, Inc. and your track events.

As far as I know, advertising is fine on ClubCobra, but to slam another business' thread with your plug is just B.S.

The intent was not to slam Panoz but to just give another alternative. Sorry if it came across as negative. This is a different type of event with a more open format. I'm familiar with Panoz, they put on a great school.

About a year ago I took the Panoz Driving School at TMS. It was undoubtedly the most fun for the dollar I have ever sent on myself. They do a great job. I am supposed to be in a seminar on the 24th and 25th in Dallas. I am thinking long and hard about playing hooky on the 24th.

Don,
Anyway you could make it easier ?

I certainly have the desire to attend and I'm working on rearranging 'stuff'.

Looks like it is going to be wonderful weather thursday and friday.

Don,

Hate to miss a terrific opportunity like this, but neither me nor my car are ready for it. I'll make one these as soon as I can though. Thanks for all you do
