Default Who's going:Watkins Glen Sept 4,5 Chin event

First time at a Chin event. I'm starting to get excited about a return to this great track!

Hoping to attend, but need to confirm later this week.

Weather forecast looks really good.

Chin is #1 IMO. Well organized, good safety management, high standards for drivers and instructors, lots of seat time, and a fun atmosphere where people are treated like adults.

Hear, Hear!

Kudos to Mark, Maria, Jack, Scott (now at Porsche), Jack, Jim and Bill.

Chin is my track famiglia. Through ups and downs, I've felt, by and large, that I was well instructed, supported, and respected through my journey as a Green "noob" into a "Chinstructor" position.

PCA is where I was "born" as a track driver.
Chin is where I found my "adult" life on track.

Incredibly respectful to first time drivers and instructors alike.

The morning Driver's Meeting script truly creates a sense of community, and sets the tone for the day.

Students respect instructors, because they see The Management showing respect to instructors. And vice versa.

I'm grateful I was referred to them early in my driving career, and am delighted to pay back to the sport and The Chin Family as an instructor.

Chin is an example of how thing are done right.

I was there last year with Track Masters and had a great time at their event. Sounds like we're in for more of the same with Chin!
