Im thinking about the grip course but with Christmas coming up and the three other events Im already registered in, I might have to bail.

Is anyone else doing the grip? Give me some inspiration to go.

whats the difference?

This doesnt seem like a good "first-time" event as their raving fast entries and speeds. For some people I would suggest watching or doing an autocross first. Once you do one event you will notice how foreign your car really is and "the streets" dont teach you anything.

Going to my first event taught me that it does not matter what motor you have in the car at all. I will probably never upgrade my motor ever again in its lifetime but focus on more important things such as tires, brakes, and alignment settings.
