Jon,

We will be up there as well, sounds like you got good advice from everyone already. We will have tire gauge and air at our trailer (white Gorman Motorsports trailer) with the spec boxster, so if you need anything stop by and we can try to help.

Tom + Black Sheeper's; we will see you there! We are hoping to hit Casa before 8.

John: I put in a passenger seat for days when I instruct so I can give rides to students. I have the first session on Saturday morning, the last session on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning sessions open so far.

Carlos, I can't help with the 1:55. My best is a 1:57 but I think I did a 1:58.2 with Don Plumley as a passenger. The hardest thing about giving a student a ride is that the car is so loud that even with the Chatterbox it's very hard to hear.

I'll see you guys Friday night at Casa Ramos. We can arrange my "dance card" then.

Smile No Hi-Jack Intened....but for those ....

that live further south (In Cali), POC has Buttonwillow for the weekend, Time Trials and Cup Racing. Weather looks to be in the low 80's. Only a 2 hour tow for me...Thunderhill....7 hours maybe...
