You should be fine with normal tires. Sticking on the track is one thing. Being able to handle the car with what you got is another. I mean, look at all the Champ drivers who slid outta control even with rain tires :)

The On Track isn't just about the vehicle -- It's also about you becoming a BETTER driver. And to be honest, I think it saved my life on the 401 a few years ago.

Heh, the whole point is to make me a better driver than I am now and that means knowing both my car's capabilities and mine.

Besides, I last took drivers ed back in :ph34r: 1993 when I first got my license. I'd say I was about due for a refresher course ;)

God, I still remember that one night on the 401 when it went from rain to sleet to snow. I slowed down as I saw cars skidding around in the distance and the guy in the lane next to me tried to slow down, ended up skidding across two lanes, pinging off a guardrail and continuing on his merry way :blink: Had I not been looking ahead and slowing down with ABS assist he would have taken me out with him
