Cannot wait to get back out there in my own car.

Yes, I was there also.. track is fun. I did find myself trying to focus on the track, there are alot of other things distract your focus. Lots of different colors, brightly painted signs ect. One thing, everyone will need good brakes. At the end of the two fast straights are 90 degree turns...

Wished I would have known about this. I would have registered.

As for Driver's Edge, they are not going to let new comers jump in for Cota. Also, no green students (beginners). They are good to run with, but are a littler stricter than most on safety. Red run group pass any where with a point by.

Found this video, didn't know if CJ had posted it or not. Gives a great view of the track. I still stand by what I said. Best track in US.

Looks great T2-T11 look like a blast! The track looks tighter form a MX5 than from any F1 onboard camera.

Is there an entry list posted anywhere?

I actually like the 11-20 sequence. Even the slow parts have a good little flow to them. And the last part (I think 15), sort of reminds me of that turn at Bahrain. This is one time I plan not to miss a minute of any session.

Done!

FYI, these things are huge (59 x 19), can easily fit several cars...and have private bathrooms. I stood in one the other day at the Cadillac gig.
