Temps were in the mid 30's in the morning and peaked at the mid to high 50's. F'in cold in the morning. I hate that first session while you try to acclimate to the cold. I'm a southern boy that HATES the cold

I sure hope the forecast calls for much warmer temps for Zone2. I don't remember last year what the weather was like. All I remember is that is was a blast!

Arnie, if that was the weather last year then I'll take that for this year! Mid 60's is perfect for the car. Nice track temp, good grip, great hp

Agreed.... If it's cold i'll be a little scared LOL, my car is a BLAST in the cold but a damn handful, controlable in the back roads but damn on the track with much higher speeds and confidence it can get you in a lot of trouble, i'll take it very easy!

Still not sure which tires to run :/

Yea I just talked to Manny who's running it via email, somehow my CC didn't go through, so I sent in a form and i''m good to go, there are several spots in Green left and so on for others who want to join, glad I sent in an email to find out why I wasn't on the list though, I know I was awaiting confirmation on whether to run blue or green since it's my firs ttime there, but since I have some other track time green it is.

We need to plan ASAP, my car is going in for some suspension tweaking of my Moton's, brake fluid flush, brake check and etc.. Please tell me you still have an extra spot Stu?!
