I can't imagine how that will feel for you, compared to the formula car.

I just love open wheel but I do like driving Irene's Mx-5, even before it was supercharged and got a sequential. I gotta say I feel safe in her car LOL.

Weather looks good for Wednesday. Thursday will be a traction sampling day.

Do it.

Was thinking about it. Waiting until Tuesday evening to confirm the weather. There are slots open.
Maybe just go up and have fun playing cat and mouse with my buds. My first Glen trip of the season. So psyched.

Anyone know if the garage assignments were done already for this event?

I registered and paid for a garage spot, but haven't received anything about which garage is mine.

Am I missing something on Club Reg or did I not get a certain email?

Thanks,

DG

Edit: Just got the email. Now that's timing.

What a great event! Two days of great driving. A bit cold on Wed morning but otherwise perfect weather. I'll be back next year!

What a great event. Couldn’t agree more. Great people, lots of respect on track, tons of track time, etc.
The format is top notch as well. For those that missed this event, put it in your calendars for next year.
Thanks to the good folks at HCR PCA for putting on such a stellar event.

Just to echo everyone above, what a phenomenal event. Hands down the best PCA run DE I've attended. Can't wait for next year. Thank you for a great event.
Here's my little Boxster running a 2:05 in Cups :)
This was my fastest lap new PB and quicker than the I Class lap record

And this is what it looked like when I got my scene file working...

Thanks Frank, dgrobs and Paul for the great feedback about the event!

Please help the HCP Region keep this event alive by bringing more driving friends to this event next year.

Good to meet you in person dgrobs.

Backatcha.

Will do some more recruiting for next season's event.

I was surprised that this DE was not more crowded considering the amazing format and the amount of track time for the price. Could have easily paid double to one of the for-profit track clubs for the same amount of time behind the wheel.

Super event. Thanks for hosting and thanks for the wonderful hospitality shown to this Cups and Saucers newcomer.

Next year for sure...

I didn't know that was you. We ran together. Yellow Cayman S with Black and Red striping. #694.You were very fast. I would have said hello. Next time.....

Yes Paul, quite the lap for sure.

There were more than a few folks I never met before who came over to me and asked if I was Dgrobs. How'd they know?..

Bruce, great to see you, sorry dinner didn't work out! Thank you Thundermoose, Thanks Beantown KMan!! The nice thing is my single fast lap from last year which I couldn't really identify how I did it are now my consistent laps and my ideal rolling lap and theoretical best laps according to data show there is still room for improvement.
