Superb !!

Just what I need for later in the year.

By the way, any DEs in November planned ?
Looks like it will be then that we hit Cali, and yes Mike from Chi, we may well stop over for a few days
(If not we will visit Chi seperately)

Many thanks,
John.

Thanks Jeff.

What does HPDE mean ??

Looks like I will be over some time in the last three weeks of the month, and we are planning on driving about, so I may just 'happen to be passing' one of those


Cheers,
John.

I'd definately recommend the TracQuest events. I have been to 3 so far and they are top notch! It's like a mini vacation. Todd Serota heads up the group and he is a great guy. He's also a wine buff, if that's your thing. Usually, there is a group dinner ( dutch ) before the event, then he contracts a mobile caterer for lunch ( ribs, bbq chicken, homemade pies, etc ) and then there is an awesome banquet that night. Both the lunch and banquet are included in the entry fee.

It's a bit more pricey than other track events, but like I said, it's like a vacation. Just show up with your car! Breakfast, refreshments, food, etc, are all taken care of. I can't recommend Tracquest enough!

Btw, will you be coming here with your p-car?

Hi Jeff,

no, my car won't be coming over I'm afraid, just us.
We plan to do a driving a holiday, with two days at Laguna Seca for a Cali Superbike school visit (they are there 25th/26th/27th), and maybe a drive by of another track.

While I won't have my P-car with me I thought it would be nice to meet some of you other listers, and what better place than at the track !
Even better would be if I managed to get a ride around with someone too, but thats just being cheeky isn't it
Unless of course I hire a P-car for the trip - now there is an idea !!!
Something tells me I wouldn't be allowed on track with it though

I'll have to confirm things nearer the time, but at least now I know there are a few events on as possibles.

Thanks for all the advice.

Cheers,
John.
