so true. The kind of annoying part is I made eye contact with him in his sideview before entering a passing zone. Oh well...it was fun chasing him and it builds character.

Well...there's a BMWCCA event Jun 7-9. Check out motorsportreg for details. I think registration nationwide opens up Jan 28th. Might be some spots left. Supposed to be 225 spaces each day.

135 student spots per day. If people are expecting spots to be available when registration opens up to all CCA members outside the Texas chapters...I wouldn't be holding my breath.

Awesome looking track and looks like fun to me Know MVP is heading down there next month, but as mentioned earlier, these events fill up quick. Great videos and yes, vettes are the worst

I was WAY overdue for an extended look at the vette's rear bumper, I almost forgot what it looked like. Now I remember.

Hey OP I think we shared a garage. I was in the black 1M and my buddies had the silver subie and yellow spec miata. That is indeed an incredible facility and a wonderful track. Nice to drive on something smooth for a change.

I was surprised how much grip there was when wet. Complete opposite of MSR in Cresson. Are you attending the Lone Star event in June?

Yea, you have the orange wheels, right? You drive that 1M stupid fast! Can't believe the big guy (forgot his name) has a miata...I find it a bit ironic.

Nothing like Cresson in the wet..lol.

I signed up for the jun event. You?

Yep, that was me. Chris drove the Miata. Yes he barely fits. He's a really good driver and that was his first event in that car. His daily driver, and occasional track car, is a 135i.

I am planning to register for the June event but I can't until Monday. I'm tier two. Fingers crossed.
