Thanks,

you can also PM me with questions as well if you want.


For anyone else that is just curious, just come on out and hang around. Everyone there is great and it's a lot of fun just socializing as well as the driving. Just note..NO Alcohol allowed to be open until there is no one else on track (Cold/closed track).

Here's the thing about this event though... we aren't running a "yellow" group, per se. Blue group will be a mix of intermediate and advanced drivers, and it is very crowded at the moment... 29 cars

Yeah... the classroom issue is EXACTLY why normally we have two different classroom instructors, so we can individualize those sessions. I hate that we can't do it for this event.

Ron is very good about taking suggstions in class. After the first two, ask him to cover some of the more advance techniques and such. He loves to do this stuff on the fly.

Very true, and Ron will be made aware that there will be mixed experience in the class too.

its on like donkey kong

I've made a few changes since you have seen mine to. I shed a few more pounds and maded some changes to allow me to get out of the corners better (hopefully), pluf more tire. you could just about put two of those "Me Otter" tires side by side and not be as wide as my tires. 275/35 and 315/30 NT01s.

See ya Thursday night.

unfortunately I can't make it down until Friday afternoon. My kids have an end of school year ceremony. But I will see you Friday evening and we can party at Erics new place.

And with the new tires on the car, you can't quite put two of them together to equal one of your.

We will have fun, none the less.
