How’d you like a free lap around Nelson Ledges Road Course in a car that you can’t even buy right now? Come to the track this Saturday between 3PM and 5PM. I’m offering free rides in the Focus RS. Readers of this website will, naturally, get the VIP Drift Mode treatment!
If only it could be Sunday…
You could come to Bowling Green for HOT AUTOCROSS ACTION on Sunday, Chris. Bowling Green, KY, just to clarify.
Where is the autocross Sunday? Headed down to NCM for the Skip 2-day Miata school Monday/Tuesday.
It’s at NCM, as well
Don’t know that I can justify ten hours on the interstate for my first autocross in six years.
Especially in an automatic-equipped press car.
If it were in NKY, I might consider it…
But you’ll get a ride in the FoRS with the best/worst autoxer in the world—Bark M.!
If it were racing, I might have to come..but it’s autocross.
Also, my jorts are out for tailoring.
All lies. You didn’t show up for the trackcross and the NSX, either.
Sorry man, I’m taking the children to see Hamlet on the big screen in NYC. Have fun to anyone who makes it out.
I expect video with sound and giggles come Monday…..

If I leave Boise now, I could just make it.
Are either of youse guys instructing at Summit Point this year?
I may be able to make this (since I probably have a rare Saturday off work)! How much is admission? I saw Saturday morning open track day is $100 with lunch and dinner included but I don’t think they’d appreciate the slowness and body roll of my ’90 Town Car with no rear swaybar and air ride, not to mention the leaking rear main seal…
It’s free to attend. I don’t know what it costs to drive. Reach out to “The Excitement Tour” on FB
Per the FB post IIRC “Saturday $100 open morning track day includes lunch & dinner, afternoon: rally event participants only allowed on track.”
You should do it. I’m not sure you’ll be the slowest car there. This seems to be geared to the cruiser crowd.
I am a 13 year old fan who has read your writing for quite a few years now, I would love the chance to meet in person. This is 2 hours and 45 minutes from my home. If I did not have a funeral to go to I would love to come.
Bryce,
You shouldn’t be reading most of the things Jack writes.
Signed,
Your Uncle Bark
Ha, most of his road and track writings are pretty clean. He’s not that bad. If you go to a public middle school, Jacks writing is nothing!
If I drove from the Inland Empire when I got back my wife would have my saddle on the doorstep, if not out in the front lawn, if not out in the street. On fire.
I’d have to bring her, then.
Yeah. I think I’ll be there for this.
I’m an expat in Seoul now but when I get back the Focus RS is on my top buy list. Let me know if it’s worth it.
interested in your thoughts on the RS too!
was considering one, but for the useless glove compartment and the pain-in-the-ass lip that keeps you from sliding gear in/out of the back
