This was my first event with my new (to me) 993. Had done 2 previously in a 924S and wanted to get back into it, take it nice and slow, and have a great time with my new car - mission accomplished!
Highlight of the weekend: Rob Martin as an instructor. What a fine teacher (and driver). Plus his and Barbara's hospitality - that's how you build club spirit and forge new friendships.
Favourite on track moment: Waving Geoffey and the rest of the Cup cars by... on the Green run!!!
Geoff, I was the green bracelet waving the pass after the warm up lap. Man that was hilarious - you must have wondered what was up with the idiot in the silver 993 driving so SLOOOOOOOOW. I knew there had to be a mistake when I heard/saw your group in the rearview warming your tires behind me. All in good fun - I regret not introducing myself and meeting you personally. Maybe next year?
I'm hooked, as I knew I'd be. I see 3 events in my future for 2008!
Cheers~!

Hey Matt. I'm the guy with the red 996 GT3 that was hanging out under Rob's awning all weekend.
The hospitality is normal. Isn't it great?

Hi Matt, yea, that was embarrassing. With the dual language everything was written in, we got use to ignoring 1/2 of what was written and didn't notice that there was a different schedule for Sat/Sun, assuming that that column was just the French column, and as such were on Friday's schedule which had Red going out first. I knew something was wrong when I saw your green arm band as you gave the pass signal.

Ron, I was more then happy to pitch in and I know you would do the same for me or any other instructor. I hope you make it out to more then one RSR event next year since now we run events at 2 tracks.

They are still working on the seats.
Calabogie is a great track. Takes awhile to learn just where to go with all the turns and fairly long length.
