I'll be over there my phone number is 936-433-1200 if anyone needs any help or directions.

IMHO survival gear for an auto breakdown should include suntan lotion and ice tea not space blankets, and snow poles to keep your car from getting buried.

Can't wait to meet everyone. Exchanged email with Mark today and I'm excited about the events. Still have time to get anyone else in that wants and is qualified.

I'm a little confused, help. TWS is set for Feb 1 for afternoon open runs. COTA is set for Feb 1st/2nd/3rd. I assume that Feb 1 COTA is not an actual track day? or is it? I am very interested in doing TWS; however, if COTA is running the same day I don't see the value.

Friday is a track day at COTA for sure.

Our track day at TWS is on Thursday 31 January with drop off the Night before from 5-10 pm. We have a block of rooms at 79.00 per night for Wednesday night.

Drivers meeting will be Thursday morning at 8:30 and open track runs from 9-2 then we will all pack up and if you want we were planning on running a caravan over to COTA with arrival around 5:30.

I'm trying to get an area at COTA set aside for our group near my garage so everyone has plenty of room and more time to continue to get to know each other.

Cost is 150 for the track day and is on the calandar at clubregistration.net under American porsche.

Details on first page of this thread. We look forward to having you, the track was very fast last weekend.

Let me know.

Thanks again for setting this up. We'll be flying into Austin on Wednesday afternoon and driving over to College Station. I'll look for you at the hotel bar!

Umm, I'll let you tell Mr. Jenkins that I'm bringing a bunch of Packers fans.
