how was the weather for todays run? i only attended saturday
That yellow 3rd-gen was one of the fastest cars on the course; #77, right? I'm jealous that you got to ride with him! Was he your instructor???

We got REAL lucky and had MUCH less rain than anyone expected; only that brief downpour on Saturday and just light sprinkles on Sunday (their may have been more for the Time Trials afer I left.)

Thanks Guys,
We had a great turn out.

Of course the rain started right at the begining of the TT.

I hope everyone had a great time. Thanks Brian for taking the picts.

BTW, be sure to give us some more details about working the corners.

I'll post more details later about the event.

Great Pics & Vids Brian.

Extemely high props to everyone at TZC and TSCC for an excellent event. I had a fantastic time, and it was great to meet so many of you at the event. I was quite impressed by the Z showing.

Back in high-school when I ran my Maverick Grabber, I used to just knuckle in as Corvettes blew by me. This weekend was all about passing Z06s and lapping ZR1s. I can now die a happy man. I do respect the bow-ties, but ya just gotta brag when you can. Now if I could just keep from cooking my back brakes!!!! Thanks to our cousins from up north for coming through with an extra set of rear OEMs.

I am working on cleaning up my pics to post now. I do have a shot of that RX-7 in the paddock and I have some shots of you too Mc.
