I was thinking of going, probably one on the Shenandoah circuit.
Anyone done one of these before?

I did a NASA HPDE on Main once, best "mod" money I ever spent. I have talked to a few people who participated in a FATT and they had good things to say. I can't remember who it was though.

FATT's and HPDE's are both great events and you will learn a TON.
Some notes:
Shenandoah is not an easy course by any means.
Make SURE your breaks are up to the task
Have fun and keep an open mind![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Re: Any opinion about Summit Point's friday-at-the-track eve
After a season of autocross (80 runs), I feel less wary of technical than I do of fast.
The main is a faster track, so it intimidates me more.
Plus, I just like turns![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
I'll put some new pads on a week or so before I go.
Fresh fluids and the like.
I'm super noob, open mind is about all I got to offer![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
My biggest hope is that the instructor and I communicate easily/intuitivelty.

Good brakes, open mind, closed mouth.
And don't be afraid to go too slow.![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
