I should be around to get a few shots of you on the track Charlie.

Here's my no rain dance for ya!

 

Ok, here is the good/bad news. The good news is I have the track. The bad news is the insurance and instruction rules are changing, and if I go over 10 people, the price goes up by 2, not counting ambulance. Therefore the value factor goes WAY down, since you can do two days at that price, unless we can round up 20 more folks, at which point, again, value goes down.

Like I said before, I want this to be intimate, to make sure you ALL leave with knowing a touch more. If you are definite, please send me or TrackAddict your money, and I will get it to the owner at TGPR. The sooner we do this, the better. I will also do intros for your club to the owner, to make sure you guys have this opportunity down the road, for club meets, etc.


For those of you who want to see some vids....go to www.32vcobra.com and click the TGPR link.

So, as it stands now, I have these 10.

6. MisterWilson
7. 32VCobra

9. Super TT chic....Kingvic's wife
10. TrackAddict

If you notice, my name is not there. I am going down to help out, and be the general know-it-all. . No, really, I thoroughly enjoy these events, and I want them to fun for all. So, if you are still interested, let TrackAddict know. I figured you guys would feel more comfortable working through one of your own, rather than me, since not all of you know me. I will be emailing my address, and TA's, so we can gather the funds to send to TGPR.

Thanks .... and see you all there.

 

STF... that EVO sounds really nice. Thanks for the link. I like being able to see the entire track from the flag stand. Set the video camera on a tripod and shoot the entire course... nice!

I think my brother is going to come and shoot for us. I'm working on him.

 

Cool, sounds great. i will have the car down there, you guys are welcome to go for a spin, just be gentle with my baby !!!!.

Phlash, I want another ride in your car, maybe I can pilot a lap or two.

 

Do I send $125 now or do I wait till we have a final price?

 

sorry i will miss this one. It sure sounds fun and i know will learn a lot. It does look like a eat them up tire track. Lots of run off though. Hope the weather holds. Charlie I too pray for no rain this saturday. I will see ya'll after lunch time then.

I'll let ya drift mine if I can drift yours......

 

I just watched one of the videos on that site. Now I am all excited about going even more than I was before. It looks like a nice, short track, with places to work on a lot of things. This is going to be a lot of fun. I plan to have the car done by then. It will be fun!

Well damn, I thought I had pm'd to count me in. I guess i don't count no mo. The really good news is that the Saturday forecast has a big yellow SUN on it. Looks like it's gonna be cold too but that's what seat heaters are for!

S&T F: please let me know if you will have a slot for me.

chas

 

Will do. I may try to get the track on Friday too. I have more folks who want to come, and we can't squeeze them all in on Saturday.

 

I know you have 10 right now, but if any slot opens up, I'd love to have a spot. I can make it a weekend thing if you can get Friday too. Let me know please.

 

Are there any of you who could do Friday, instead of Saturday? You could hang out either one, but you would be 'driving' only one.

Let me know, I may can juggle this for everyone.

 

I can do either day. Just let me know. I'll be happy to take vacation.

 

I just talked to Steve, Marrieta (sp) you are in, he is going to come down too, to help.

From the looks of it, there is not a lot of shifting gears once you get going. Do you suppose we will spend most of the time in 3rd in our cars. I only ask, b/c one of the things I need to work on is downshifting, that was one of two things that kept me from moving up to HPDE 2 at RA this year.

STF, check your PM's, I need to know where to send the $$.

 

The more I think abou this event, the more I can't wait. And I thought I was not going to get back on a track until March.

 

yeah, we will have to leave a little room behind me, dont want to get run over, being the slowest one out there. But that is the one part that I really need to wrok on...footwork, downshifting.

 

So, except for the Friday drivers is anyone going down Friday night to stay? Or, is everyone just driving in Saturday am.

BTW....what time does this all start???

 

good questions. it is not that from from Atlanta to TGPR, only about 100 miles. YOu could drive down to ATL on Friday, and then we could caravan over early Saturday morning, or we could all head over on Friday, and get a few rooms at one of the places listed under accomodations on the TGPR website. checkered things not included!

 

Well, it's 140 from here.......so unless someone can come up with a good reason for me to add the extra 130 miles to Atlanta, I may pick you all up at I20 at a agreed time.

 

I'm OK either way. I don't mind driving over Friday evening or Saturday morning... my face will have a stupid looking grin on it no matter what.

 

me too, considering how much is going onto the car next week. Coilover's, brake lines, and new pads. It will be a whole different car now. I can't wait.

 

Wow.....somebody must be getting a Christmas bonus.......

 

ha, yeah I am, but I have been saving up for this stuff for a while too. I almost forgot about new sticky tires too.

 

I plan to do the same, maybe we can arrange a meeting point or two, so that we caravan again. Cause it is cool to see a line of us on the highway.
