There will be 5 run groups, so you will probably get five 20-25 minute sessions with lunch around 11:30. Aaron might email a schedule later today. As always, be at the track by 7:00 am and make sure you get to registration (I'll be there getting everyone registered) and the driver's meeting will be at 7:45.

It was great fun yesterday and the best thing was everyone returned home safe. When that FC flipped during the first session I was afraid it was a bad omen.

I want to know my last session time! I know that my fast time of the day was on the last session.

It was nice to see everyone, hope I didn't scare whoever it was that rode with me (sorry, I forgot everyone's names ). Did you guys check the last posted times before you left? I ended up at 16.9 something for best time, got it on the last session. Hope you all had fun, can't wait to do it again at Streets next month!

Oh, and as soon as we get pics/video uploaded I'll post the links here.
