WRX boy will be on the track for the first time too. He's autocrossed, but nothing like this. Once he's deflowered, he'll then be call "WRX Man!"

well then,
Group 1:
silverEIGHT
WRX boy
Pam
Group 2:
L8APEX
valpac
Phlash
Group 3:
TrackAddict
AC8?
Lego

I don't know Mister Wilson, so I have no idea what his skill or experience level is. I tried to group it based on what I know about each person's driving. Lego and Phlash were interchangeable, and can go where they want. This was just a suggestion.

Comments?

I can't wait for this, more delayed gratification...

That looks good to me. I'll be happy in either group since I'm going to have a **** eating grin the whole time I'm there anyway!

yep, nice sound. should be coming from an 8 though. Maybe someday we'll have a SC to play with.

BTW, just ordered a DVD of TGPR from Tracktapes.com. Reasonable ($20) and the guy said he has like 4 hours of laps on it. Gotta see those apexes dontcha know.

HaHA, I'm gonna be "deflowered"....

Thanks for letting a non-member, non RX-8 driver come and play with you guys. Go easy on me.

Can't wait!

welcome to the group. you might want to read up on the de-track-virginizing process, it is described in the first couple pages of the original TGPR thread...

Let me know if Mr. Wilson cannot make it.
I would run with the G1 crowd.

WRX boy, no worries, we are ALL there when the de-virgining took place, however, I was merely 9 when it happened for me. I have 'officially' been tracking now is some fashion for 'right at' 20 years. (This includes my 3 years off for college when I didn't take a ride in nascar).

As for the nonRX8 things, these guys are great about that. Trust me, an Evo owner at most track events, is like a AIDS infected, ferious tiger. No one will get within 20 feet of you. However, these guys didn't let that get to them, I have made some GREAT friends in this club, despite the car I currently own.


Man, AM I THAT OLD? TrackAddict, can you tell, when you ride with me, that I have been doing this that long?

WRX Boy - welcome to the group.

STF - 20 years of driving huh? Had me fooled. You take turns too fast, drive too close to the walls, and keep your car sideways. I think you should practice more.
