I'm a late adapter who likes to buy used from private parties so it might be a while. I may just keep violet around even if I pick up a newer GT3.

couple of my northwest track buddies will be there. Curt and Shay in a 996GT3 and 997.2 GT3RS and Karthik in his E9x M3 when he gets his belt reinstalled (broke on the drive down...)

Justin will be there as well (Cantrell guy) with his new to him Cup Car...

Have fun, I'm still playing with spring lengths and wing strut nuts before I get to wring mine out on the track... It's amazing how $5.00 parts can keep you grounded...

I'm curious what lap times you guys are getting on the 5-mile??? My best today were a couple 3:37's. The Martini car passed me so fast today that it made me feel like I was driving a car made by Fisher Price. Nice driving btw!
This was my 5th day to run the new track, and I'm finally warming up to it. I'm still not a fan of the 3 hairpin turns, though.

My fastest lap of the day was 3:33 down from a 3:46 from the first session (first time running the 5-mile course).

Missing out.
Poor reporting, no pics from cup car parts missing and worse trophy girls.

Really wanted to go but got swamped in work. May try to blaze up Sunday to at least take pix and maybe catch a hot lap if there's any empty seats. Depends how work goes Saturday...

Sounds like a blast.
