Wow. I showed up at 2:45pm. For some reason, some folks just didn't show up for their scheduled driving session, so there were spots open if you wanted to drive. I just HAD to lose my wallet with my license & everything in it. You can bet your a$$ i was pissed at myself. I did manage to snap some crappy shots....

Great time!

My wife wanted to strangle who ever was in front of us while she was driving in the follow the leader session on the road course.

Who ever it was kept hitting the brakes and holding everyone up.
You only needed to touch the brakes twice all the way around. This guy was on the brakes in the middle of the straight section!

When I was driving everything went good.

Wife and I are looking forward to the next event!

Thanks Lexus!!

I was pretty lucky on that road course part. We only had 15 people in that 7:45 group so when it came to the two person switch I was alone in the car and did a double stint. :biggrin: Yeah I don't recall having to hit the brakes at all until I was running up the butt of the car in front of me. THey weren't too slow luckily and I would hang back a little to get a better run.
