Very nice assortment Mark, you are not bad with that fancy new digital film! I was gonna punch Hartmut in the arm and say "red one" but I'm not sure he would have got the bad VW joke.

The racing was fun, but is was freaking COLD and windy! What is going on in NorCal this spring?

I was there with my son and he got to do his first laps on a race track even if they were only parade laps. He had a huge grin on his face and was scared going down the Corkscrew! I need to sign him up for Skip Barber!

Jody has a photo of me on the passenger side of my car. Great seeing everyone there!

I did a day of Skip Barber at Laguna Seca with my ex-GF's son and it was as much fun as I've ever had. Half day on the track in the formula cars, the other half day doing skills (threshold braking, figure-8 skidpad wet/dry, auto-x,) in various Dodge vehicles (now Mazda's as I understand.) At the end of the day we got to do auto-x laps in a 911 and Viper. Highly recommended.
