I'd rather not deal with the diminished light of an evening session. Friday early morning is the least crowded in my experience. I've been there with fewer than 10 cars (a couple times far fewer) and over 100 (usually day before PCA weekend with Club Race).

Agree with Grant. Friday AM only session is not only a great time, but best value. I would recommend lead/follow with knowing you already understand basic track safety from PCA events. Having someone that runs out there regularly helps, and can talk you through the various corners and their characteristics. Chat it up with other drivers that you meet as there are generally good people that run there. The "others" stand out, and you just need to avoid them. Think softly sprung EVO and STI guys running big boost that want to race down the straights......dangerous guys at times. Watch a bunch of videos from guys in cars like yours. A good bench mark for your GT4 would be learning from Eric's videos. Check out "ecanderson18" on youtube and you will watch some dang good driving at HPR with the GT4.
