Default Which Race Do You Most Look Forward To in 2010?....

For me it's not any of the West Coast tracks. I look forward to TWS in March w/PCA hopefully on a dry track with temps in excess of 40 degrees. It's hard to learn a track when you can't see it....

I may rent Rob's Spec Boxster again, or I may haul my 996 Spec down there and shoot for the overall but regardless I'm coming....

And you?....

As a driver: I'm really looking forward to getting back into racing after a long layoff, and hopefully running the Rennsport Reunion later this year.

As a crew guy: World Challenge Touring will finally be included at the Grand Prix of Long Beach, and I'm looking forward to that race.

As a fan - Rally Finland - usually first race on WRC calendar and hopefully Universal HD Theater will continue showing the races for 2010.
As a racer - not sure...I guess the first race I can win.

Same race. I'll be in my 996 Spec shooting to complete the race. Bring your 996 Spec down and you might be able to claim a new GTB track record.

From a sheer on track experience, the Limerock club race. From an overall race weekend perspective, the Watkins Glen club race.

Alright jrgordonsr... You got me daydreaming now. Happy? Can't wait til next season!

I'll certainly make the SPBOX available for you. I don't have a conflict this year with the TWS event so I hope to be able to make it as well. I'll take the 996 and set the class record in GTB instead.

After staying within a 5 hour tow in 2009 I would like to do at least one out of region race in 2010. Road America with PCA and NASA Nationals at Miller are the two top candidates. Maybe both if it all works out.

Other highlight will be the NASA 6 hour enduro at TWS in April. (I have confirmation the annual enduro will be a 6 hour race in 2010)

Mosport club race - I always have a fabulous time, it's an awesome track and I don't do any other events there.
