Sorry, I'll be at Putnam Park with BMWCCA next weekend and will need the time afterwards to start getting ready for the Dragon. I'll be headed to Mid-Ohio probably sometime in the Summer, but MOST DEFINITELY in late October!

If I could get out of work I might. Trouble is I doubt I'll get the time off. Fill us in on your experience. Have fun.

Fill us in how you did Jason. Man you had a perfect day for it. A couple of weeks ago we ran on snow. Too bad I couldn't get off work today.

Rally please share your pictures with us track day addicts.

What perfect weather for a day at the track!!!!!
I had a great time, the car ran real nice, and I worked a lot on making the driver run better too :-D. I tried out my new camera mount while there, I posted a little video on youtube

I was there for the three days--what a difference a week makes in the weather! It was as good as it gets, and the event turned out really well. Lots of good photos on the NASAforums site, with more to come...

hahah i dont know if you saw me....but i was up on the hill on thunder alley cheering you on as you represented the MC racers out there on saturday. It was great to see an MC among the EVOs, BMWs, corvettes, and one MCS. I have a few pics of your car from last year too if you're at all interested. (didnt get any this year....too lazy)

Didn't see you but you were in a good spot.....the whole car gets light going over the hill and the tires really scream as you slide all the way across the track. Had some real good dices with various cars over the weekend.
