Oh... Don't forget GGF. First car out at 10:00 as opposed to our usual 9:00 start.

2nd Set of runs: You buy two sets of run. You run two groups and work two groups. If I remember correctly, second set of runs costs $25.

Anyone in the know on how I could easily renew my prior membership if I do not have my old card on hand? I wanted to do it today and try to make it to GG on Sunday. Any help appreciated.

You can just renew online. Once you do that, print the confirmation and bring that when you register Sunday morning. Reminder all... first car out at 10 at GGF.

Thanks darkonion. I tried that, but it's looking for my old membership information. I guess it's time for the old fashioned telephone renewal.

Hey Kevin,

If first car out is at 10am, are we staging at 9am for Run Group 1?

Also, when is setup then? 8am?

FYi i believe they said you need to sign up for setup now.. and you cant just show up anymore...

ya i believe you can start gridding as soon as u get there, better that way so you can get a good spot (inverted grid: you have to back in)


but who knows i dont think theyll refuse help if you show up

Interesting course today. I didn't post as fast of times as I usually do, but I think it was because the course was somewhat tight. A lot of need elements to the course though. Too bad I couldn't carry momentum on this course today. That's okay. Great learning experience though.

I did a 49.xxx, 48.1xx (+1), and a 48.0xx. Not sure if I hit any more cones, but we'll see when the results are posted.

Yeah... I actually downshifted in that area, too. Didn't quite have the torque I needed to pull through that area.

Yeah, this course was hella tight. Had to take those turns kind of slow. Sucks that I don't have any more torque. Couldn't really pull out of the turns that well. Oh well. All and all though, it was a good course. I might have not as done as well as I would have liked, but I think I took away some new skills and what not.

yo lews, looks like that supra is just as fast as the STi!

turns out i didn't cone that 3rd run... i think the course worker was either running to check or cleaning up someone else's aftermath... 44.2 not too shabby!
