I am thinking of going up but want to go when the peeps go. I will run advanced, but will most likely instruct for beginner group. I just want to make sure I get another Z driver so we can get you to warp speed quickly.

hey guys.. i am going to switch to sunday if they still actually have it.
but from the looks of it, probably not gonna happen

only reason switch to sunday is due to the lesser number of people on the track, means more track time for everyone else...

ill know for sure early next week..

Haven't been on this forum quite so often since the ZR went away. Sure do miss it!

Jamie isn't the only one who got a GSX-R! I bought a 750 in July.

I would enjoy doing some instructing, but I don't have any good contacts there. Just taught a BW clinic in December.

UUUUGGGHHHH! Saturday is all sold out...all groups! Sunday, they still need 15-20 more registered by Tomorrow night or it's no go.

Now there is a 30% chance of showers for both days. Buttonwillow on R888's, or RT-615's, in the rain......now that has a serious SPF! (sphincter pucker factor) Major adjustment to the braking zones!

Running the rain with street tires is not that bad. It makes you be hyper sensetive to the cars movements. You just have to watch your braking zones and your mirrors.

Now on a competition tire....forget it.

I'm kind of thinking Sunday might work out.
