    Favourite training / practice places?

    I'll share mine then ask for yours...

    Parking lot in the west end. Almost always empty (anytime of day), NO lightposts or obstructions at all and approx 140m x 115M.

    Where's a good place to practice turns at medium-higher speeds near the west end ? (ie low traffic, forgiving road, good surface?)

    business parks on the weekend or evening are also good as they have lots of roads and little traffic. Sam goes for getting used to the DVP and QEW etc always go early in the morning.

    In my neighbourhood I go to my old highschool parking lot on weekends.

    OP - just north of Centennial Park those roads in and around the business park are fairly low traffic, even during weekdays (as long as it's not rush hour). In and around Matheson/Explorer/Satellite/etc. The roads are also relatively new, no hills or dips, and lots of big empty parking lots you can also hit up.

    Anywhere in the Scarborough area? I want to practice my leans and rev matching.

    Anyone down to do a practice session on a weekend or even weekday morning?

    The Humber College North overflow lot is usually empty except for the occasional Sunday during the summer.

    All the usual training lines are painted on the lot.
