Good idea on the separate thread for Q&A, though I think we've pretty much got our optimal qty of attendees here so it wouldn't be detrimental to this thread to ask Q's imo.

Ask away!

Maybe just keep the track questions on this thread since we have covered all of the signup details. The two things that standout to me are:
1) Make sure your car is in solid working order especially brakes and cooling system. This has been covered elsewhere so I won't go into details here. Make sure your seatbelt, seat, helmet are in good working order.
2) Check your ego at the entrance gate. Newbies should note that they may be passed by Miata's, Civics etc due to their experience. Don't get bummed. It's just part of the learning curve.

Can't emphasize this enough guys!

Seen it too many times, it's why I'm pretty particular about who I run with.

Nice work Regan! Getting 25 people to commit is a major accomplishment. This is going to be a super fun day.

Here is an excellent turn by turn track analysis by Billy Johnson. This is the same track configuration we will be running.

[chang99]

It is still pending on completion of work being done. I won't know until end of September. Can you put me on the pending list ? Can I walk in & sign up at the track ?

 

[Coz]

I have been officially put on the Instructor list by Speed Ventures for this event to instruct the NSX beginners.
Obviously I can't instruct all of you but I'm working with SV to make sure we get the best instructors for our NSX guys.
This is the group I see for the Blue Group: Novice, that will need an instructor. This is it, correct ?

As for the other groups, No certification/license is required for the more experienced drivers to go out with the less experienced drivers for coaching. Ride alongs are permitted.

WOW! Personal instruction from the great Coz himself. Jelly. Thinking of moving down to blue group for the day.

 

[Coz]

Great, hardly...Adequate, yes ;-)
I'll make sure we get a chance to ride together Roger in the group you're in.
Ryneen, Will, Happa and Greg are others that you should also try and hook up with.
They are all faster than I am

I actually got a ride from Ryneen a few years back at Buttonwillow and it was eye opening

 

[Coz]

I had the chance to spend 3 days with Ryan and Billy at Spring Mountain a couple months ago, was very impressed with his driving, he's very smooth and very quick.

Thanks Coz. I appreciate the good word. I'm really looking forward to catching up with you again. Are you running both days? I'm trying to stay the night to run Sunday as well.

I will gladly give ride alongs all day as well as some instructing for the beginner and intermediate groups if anyone is interested. I'm looking forward to a fun day with everyone.

 

[Coz]

Catching up ?...you mean passing me again, right ? LOL...

Yes, will stay for Sunday. No point in making the drive all the way there for only Saturday and since I'm already going to be there
Yes, please stay for Sunday as well !

Haven't been on BW in 6 years and as we both know, one day on a new track is never enough to get a good feel for it.
Looking forward to seeing you, spending time and catching up with you as well. I see your family is doing well, everything good with you and Jessica's new one in the oven ?

I will talk to SV and make sure we can get you on the instructors list for the NSX Novice group.
I'd like to see NSX owners that have a lot of track experience as instructors for the new NSX drivers if at all possible since we know the cars and how they handle.

On a side note... For you fast folks . I hear the new tarmac is faster, grippier and wider. I suspect you'll hit PBs 2-3 faster!

I'll still be slow

 

[mochanges]

Man I just heard about this today from some fellow NSXers up here. Ironically I will be down in LA that weekend, but with the family. Hope to make the next one, I haven't run Buttonwillow in about 6-7 years.
