Nice seeing everyone out at the HPR today. I do hope the afternoon went as well as the morning appeared to go.

Is everyone wanting to get some more lapping time in after some good instruction?

I posted pictures for your usage here: LINK ALBUM LINK

I will have to work on my video shooting some more and maybe edit some of the bits I got to see if any is worth viewing.

Perhaps when I get back to the states. See you all at MITM I hope.

Don

Thanks everyone for coming out to the club meeting and to see the ladies on the track.

The MINI ladies all did a great job...Me? I prefer parade laps or to have the whole track to myself

But I now understand the dynamics of a track and yes, on the way home, took corners differently. (I enjoyed the corkscrew part of the track.)

Sounds like success to me, you took corners differently on the way home and probably a lot more comfortable driving your MINI.

I look for the line on corners and on-ramps and exit-ramps, if they are curvy.

Do you have more pictures from the Sony? I saw Rich snapping a bunch.

Off to pack.

Don

Yesterday was such a blast - HPR is great track and my favorite corner is #13 It was great to meet everyone even if I could only be around for a little bit at a time

Great shots Don and have a safe trip!

Here are Tom's photos: http://fullerfotos.net/?p=223

Great job ladies! A long, hot day for sure, a valiant effort by all..

Rich, gracias para de agua y galletas de mantequilla de mani..( water, peanut butter crackers translation )

It'll be fun to let 'er rip at HPR on another day..

Overall, where did you ladies finish up? blue, green orange, black, or..

Hey, at least my MINI made it back in one piece, for now..

See you at MITM..
