lol, count me in for two people. Al, do you mean pro or full track? either or is fine with me. although 24 people might be pushing it, but im more than willing to try for it. Im even willing to pay a little more for pro or full track so long as we do three hours again. three hours was just perfect.

Thumbs up

That was an awesome evening!!!! Huge THANKS goes out to all involved, especially Al, Rob and Chris!

Hopefully, I'll able to attend future events because obviously I need more practise to keep up with everyone and I hope I didn't hold anyone up during the event. If allowed, I'm in for the same track, full track or any combination there of! You all are a great group of 8 enthusists and it was fun boot'n around the track with all of you. No better way to spend a Friday!

Was definately a fun day..... I'll jump on the thanks bandwagon as well... thanks to Al, Pat, Chris, and Kevin (for giving me his spot). The day was great... think everyone benifited from the instruction. Also thanks to Josh for letting drive his car for a few laps.


I

NEED

R1's!!!!!!!

I should have jumped in with Eddie or Josh with the R1's, but I didn't want to stop

Ya the instruction was awesome, great way to start the day and then work on smoothness since we get a sense of the lines from doing that.

yeah.. I highly recommend that you do next time! With one conditional clause. If you do.. be fully aware of the fact that you will NEED to buy the tires after the ride. They make such a huge difference it's crazy.

When Eddie first when out with them... I was behind him and we'd go into the second hard braking point... we were almost at the same speed.. and then he just took off like a bat out of hell THROUGH THE ENTIRE CORNER.. ****.. so much grip.
