Track Days in the past year

How many track days have you guys participated in the past year (road course, not drag)? Curious to know how many people are tracking their cars.

Maybe a couple of dozen days this past season. I instruct with a bunch of clubs, so I get quite a bit of track time each season.

Must be nice to live so far south! Up here in Canada, the season doesn't really get going until the end of May (too much frost/snow before then) and has to wrap up by late September/early October.

But I'll be heading down to the big PBOC Winterfest at Sebring at the end of January. Will any of you be there? Maybe we can put together an Evo corral?

I instructed one event and blasted around in another event this season. Time and money are the only limiting factors to more track days.
