Lots of E9x M3's but no one checks in here. We had a great day. Very well run with the only hickup during lunch when they only gave us 1/2 a wrap and a brownie. We were one of the first, but were able to get a bag of chips and a second half later. GREAT JOB Hack!!  Lots of large diagrams of the track and the turns were numbered on our map on the badge- nice touch. So when's Spring Mountain??? .

Let me get a couple of day's rest and I'll start working out the logistics and do a feasibility study.

Fun day at AAA. Next time that chicane on the infield straight has to go! Everything ran smooth other than my runoff on turn 16...
I'm in for Spring Mountain  |

What about your two wide through 1 and 2, "NASCAR style?"
 But what are you suppose to do when you come up on someone going so slow in the middle of the NASCAR turns... and you're instructor tells you to pass him?? How was SpeedVentures Sat for you guys? .

Saturday was great! Oddly enough the same thing happened again between 1 and 2 on Saturday. I'm going 120 in the oval and some guy is down low pointing me and a Porsche that I'm following by and he's slowing down. Both of us hesitated and then just went. Too dangerous to hit the brakes at that point. No black flags though...
So when is the next event? Damn this is an expensive addiction. |

I can't decide what was more "exciting" on Saturday: 1. Riding passenger in my brother's car with a guy less than a car length off his bumper on a "cool down" lap going 110 in the breaking zone into turn three OR 2. Me winding up door to door (a car width apart, my wife in the passenger seat) with a 600 hp Supra Race Car at 145 going into turn 1 because the guy came up really fast to pass on my right in the straight and then had a mis-shift/transmission issue. Both had me reaching for a clean pair of boxer shorts when we came into the pits. |

And after that instructor saying Aberlien won't go into NASCAR 1 faster than 140mph in a street car, I dialed it back a big. Then throw in my power steering going out in the middle of that turn on my last car, and I'm just trying to get through that section of the track.  Not sure about that SpeedVentures after these stories!!! .
