    No one else is planning on the track? I would really like Wolfgang to come by the house to see the "FerrariChat.com Office". Jennie is making breakfast, so let me know who is meeting at the house for a caravan or who is just going to the track. Thanks!

    Wolfgang, are you a track driver at all?

    Yes & No.
    My testarossa is too heavy for the track and the original testa brake s_cks so badly. I drove my beast at the Hockenheim Ring F1 track and at the Nürburgring F1 track. My old 308QV was a lots better handling on the track.
    I`m happy looking forward to be your passenger/co pilot in your 355 Challenge. I`m sure we will have lots of fun:)

    Rob,
    I have not read the entire thread so I dont know the particulars.
    What day are you going to MSR? I might be able to go if you are going on Staurday.

    Rob,
    sorry, I realy don`t know your address or how to come to your house on Sunday morning?!
    Is there anybody, who will drive on Sunday morning from Dallas downtown to Rob & Jennie for breakfast.....and could please pick me up at the hotel?
    I realy don`t want to miss Jennies breakfast and to drive together with Rob on the track.

    I'd love another ride, maybe this time more than a couple laps ;) but with only 2 or 3 sessions, I didn't want to take a chance away from someone who hasn't ever gotten one.

    I've fixed the belts too so we can get multiple people in per session. I moved the tough to adjust passenger belts to the driver and have quick release belts for the passenger. Depending on number of people, we can do up to 3 passengers per session.

    Cool, we'll see how it goes. Not sure on weather, how crowded it will be, and if you feel confident to go out on your own. My RX8 is being built out at the track, so if it is in one piece, we might be able to use that.

    I'm PM'ing my address. Let me know if anyone else needs it.

    I can't make any promises, but there is a chance I may be able to pick Wolfgang up and take him to Rob's house. I need to drive the Poker Run route at some point this weekend, so I may be able to pick Wolfgang up, have breakfast at the Castle Lay, and then go run the route, meeting you guys at MSR later in the day.

    I'd like to try to come to the track, but am not sure what the Sunday schedule looks like for the kids. If I do come, I'm sure I'll have to bring one of the boys. What time to you think you'll start driving?

    Earliest would be 11am, they run 3 groups at 30 minutes, so every 90 minutes.

    Have a safe trip Wolfgang!

    And to Nick & others... I spoke with the gf last night, I told her about the activities. She responded, "well... why wouldn't I? It's not like I haven't been to one before." So... 50/50.

    I hope to be at the Ranch this weekend sometime. My mechanic tells me the crash dammage from last season is mostly repaired and its been at least 6 Months since I've ran. Hope not to make too much of a Jack-ass of myself. I can invite one person as a guest driver in their own car to run. You must possess some previous track experience or lie if necessary.

    I'd take your offer David, but if I go I'll just be observing. I've ran out there before, but I'm due for a clutch, and don't want to risk further damage on the track. Ahhhh... maybe next time, if the offer is still there.

    Will, I still can't believe he let you take it out for half an hour on new tires. I only hope I am offered with the same kind of generosity.
