Awesome. I really enjoyed it and had a blast on the booth the auto-X and skid pan...first time I got close to getting the hang of it and drifting my ass around both parts. I shredded my front left Conti DW street tire though. I guess they aren't designed for Auto-X!

Turner has a few guys at the track day. Their driver Marsal turned up in a McLaren! They were tuning their LRP M3...they drove down to LRP on ex-Grand-Am slicks! The joy of running your own race team, I should really get one of my own. One of the instructors was a Turner research guy who had a 135 tuned to ~500HP at the wheels. It was funny to hear him sat he wasn't happy with the oil thermometer, so he was going to DESIGN his own! Awesome!
