Across the path/road from you. We're towards grid entry a little more. I've got the white RS and 4forme has the grey one. I assume you were by the orange Mclaren?

Thanks for posting. Nice driving - smooth and consistent. Looked like a lot of open track - not much traffic. Seems like the grip level was pretty good - even on a damp track? What time is your run group time today - would like to watch live?

Yes. Being parked next to that car is like dating a super model. Nonstop attention. Gorgeous car and Ritesh is a great guy.

Nope. No blue ESV, that's at home with the fam. I picked up a pimped out Audi Q7 to tow and drive around town with the kids. Kids and ESV should be here feb 1-3 though.

Hanging out with 4forme who made the drive from IA last minute.

Yes, Hoosiers. Been fighting understeer and constant sliding all day though. I got the rake decreased on my car cuz it had way too much before...my car looked like it was standing on its front end. Still learning it, but it seems I'm now plowing into and out of corners. I'll soften front sway next and go from there.

Nice pickup with the Q7. I may have to pick up some Hoosiers to keep up with you guys so I follow behind and keep up to learn the track

Wish I was there today too. Yesterday was fun, but the wet and the Re-11s I was on (plus me having no *****) led to slow laps. It was still amazing driving that track though. Now that we know the layout, I'll have to push it next time out on real tires. Assuming COTA management decides this is a good way to make money and there is a next time
