I had a great time man! Can't wait to take the L1 course. Gonna have to skip some lunches and quit buying **** from other members to pay for all this! I'm gonna plan for the weekend after next but we shall see.

VS8, check the site for pricing.

Weather permitting I am likely headed back out this weekend. Two weeks away from the track is more than I can take. All 8s welcome!

I've been sick as a dog the past few days with the flu but maybe by Sunday I'll be okay to head up and watch. maybe they will have a schedule for the classes on site.

I keep checking the website to see if they have performed the upgrade...not yet. I am hoping they get the new site up soon.

If past schedules are any indication, they would not have another L1 class until early October since there is typically an open weekend before and after each class.

Sunday was a stellar track day! Set personal best lap times one after another...and pulled away from guys, who just four weeks prior, were pulling away from me.

Here are a couple of links to videos from the most recent track day...

The first video is a 4 lap traffic-free grouping from the middle of the first session. Please forgive the camera as it starts to rotate about it's mount...i failed to lock it down completely.

http://www.4shared.com/file/13153475...0_Excerpt.html


The second one is a multi-lap sequence (warm up lap and several hot laps) from the second session taken by the wife in the pit area. It is always good to have external videos whenever possible.

I didn't letter-box the videos so when you view them from the webpage they will be horizontally squashed...if you download them you can see them in original widescreen format.

L1 one is a gonna have to wait til' next month. I hit something in a puddle and it jacked up my front. I have it rigged up so you can't really tell but I know its fawked up so I'm gonna replace my front bumper. I had lowered my deductible to $250.00 but come to find out I only lowered the comp so my collision is still $500.00 so there is no use filing it.

Yeah I'm buying a flawless VR front with a clear Bra on it for $450.00 so that saves me time and money!! Plus I'm getting a LIP which I didn't have before.
