Thanks Steve for setting this up again D hill is in and paid.. Can we limit cars to high performance cars. The fiat was a bit slow last year causing traffic jams.

If you would JUST change your birthday so you can come play with us... and Vegas... have fun, I'll have bail, just call. You are very welcome sir! There will be more instruction and direction given this year to all of us in the first classroom session so that we all know better how to handle passing etiquette and mirror awareness < wink > I am excited and hopeful that it will be an all Ferrari group and maybe by next year ( or the following event ) we may do an entire Ferrari day! Different groups for different level of cars ... ! More to follow S
It's not going to be a race. Just a driver instruction class. Even if you don't do the class I highly recommend coming out to see what it's like.
Do you know which track we will get? I've done the shorter track with my Audi and it seemed like I was braking more than accelerating. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I am 99% sure that we will be on the 1.7 counterclockwise And if you're breaking that much in your Audi, I need to take you out there and show you the line. I can only think of for breaking zones in my Audi. Lol S
Thank you captain obvious. Honestly , I am replying off my phone and between "speak to text" and me not proof reading it, I missed it. And by the time I saw it, it was too late. I apologize to the grammar Nazis , it will not happen again. S

I just paid and realized this is for beginners (which I am not). Steve, should I still go? It still looks like there are 2 open run sessions..... Thanks.
Most beginners don't run all the sessions. We do have some great drivers that will be out there. But, I do understand your concern.
