Thank you, Alex @ Princeton Porsche. Grid Girls should become mandatory for all races....

I was kind of down on the track at first but I must say that it has really grown on me. I, too, will be back!
Eh, details.

Grid girls become mandatory at all races? How are you going to get me out of work for your busy racing schedule?

It was a great, great event. The races were fun to watch as from the bridge and other choice locations one could see each race at all points on the track. Great camaraderie and lots of fun. Even us DE guys got 5 run sessions each day.

Schattenbaum and Princeton Porsche have now set the bar high for race/DE events standards!

Schattenbaum did a supreme job running the event, it was on time and without a hitch all weekend, the dinner was great and the facility is fantastic and only going to get better.
They said they're going to have a Club Race at Thunderbolt in the spring in addition to the Lightning summer race, and that DE would "always" be invited to accompany us. More fun for all.
Great to be with you guys, even if I brought the newer car and wasn't in the run group with Gary and Sean to rematch, but I had great dicing the whole time in Yellow sprint until I parked it in the second, then codrove Nazaroff's 911 in the Orange enduro.

I wanted to say it was great again to see everyone, I tried to go around and say hi to everyone but I never seemed to have enough time to get it all done. I am patiently waiting my pictures i am hoping to post a few to make Mtosi proud.

BTW i still have a few hundred boxes of mints and a few orange cones I guess we need to do it all again

Thanks again Alex, looks like you had more fun helping Grid Girl #1 steer the golf cart than you did on the track!

That dinner (and event in general) was top shelf! Loved the track too! Awesome.

Right now I think the track is not that great for spectating, as there aren't many places where you can see much. But, once I climbed up on top of our transporter that all changed, as one could see nearly the entire circuit by just going up a few feet! So, I'm hoping that a few grandstands are part of the plan, it will change the place dramatically.

I'm expecting tons of photos, and some video is already in. Will be posting them on Schattenbaum's website soon. Met a ton of great people at the event, and at the Sat night dinner.
