Both you guys need to post videos. I haven't driven there in a few years and I hear that they made improvements and additions since then. Wish I could make it out there too.

NASA will be on the South and East tracks. East is the new one.

Wish you were going to be there too Will.
You know we will
We may even have some Billy video when we test the NSX race car Nick at Applied Motorsports built on Monday.

Coz, I see that NASA is running a new config. Do you know what configuration they are running on Monday? I was hoping they were going to do the original 3.1 or 3.4 config. I'm setting a goal to try to get within 5 seconds of Billy, each driving my own car.

According to the members schedule Ryan, Monday we are limited to the 1.5 mile track. Which was originally called the Radical Loop.
Have you been on it ?...tight but fun.
Yes, the original 3.1-3.4 was the North & South tracks combined. They are a great combination.

I've never been on East yet.

Have you signed up yet for TT with NASA ?

Yes, I heard that was your goal

The new east track is newer, cleaner, smoother, wider and safer, but not as much fun as the older tracks.The new track is the only track SM will rent for outside groups.
Enjoy the old track for the last time. Lance

It won't be my last time on any of the tracks actually.
Hadn't heard they were going to stop renting out the track facilities to clubs.
Most clubs can't afford the rental costs anyway.

Good luck Saturday. I'm bummed I couldn't figure out a way to fly to Laguna Seca to watch your race and still get my car to Vegas.

That was a fun weekend hanging with Billy, Coz and Nick. Had a great time doing Time Trials on Sun and playing around on track Monday with Coz and Billy. The highlight of my weekend was getting a ride with Billy in Nick's turbocharged Radical. I forgot the power/weight, but I think it was something crazy like 350HP and 1000lb? Insane!

I downloaded my SD card from my GoPro and…. no videos. The card I had was full and didn't capture any video. Such a bummer. I however, do have some Traqmate data of both Billy and my sessions in my car that I will download tomorrow when I find my cable.

I want to see the data!
