Hoping to make it there. Have one coaching client, but he and I are trying to find a another driiver/drivers who want to "share", in order to cut everyone's share of my expenses. We'll see. Doubt I'll be racing, but you never know.....

Don't think I'm going to make winterfest this year. Getting kind of boring running the SM with no competitors.

Yeah, only 4 cars in R7 right now, and most of them look like they should be faster than an SM. Not really a good class for a true SM car.

I'd like to find out more about doing private coaching at Sebring, but running in supersolo makes that difficult. Have to ask permissions and get an exception to run in a different group. Will probably end up doing it at a CHIN event where there is more track time, and having/being a passenger isn't such a big deal.

Thanks for the feed back. We had a full trailer but one of our guys has a medical procedure scheduled for the first week of the new year. He feels that better safe than sorry if his recupe is longer than anticipated ,so we have an opening for PBOC. I spoke to Spencer about the Farnbacher meltdown. If anybody can land on their feet its Spencer. He is aware of our availability and we would look forward to working with you guys again. Remember we are wide open for the February 4-7 PCA Sebring event for transportation and trackside support.

Yes, PBOC does not encourage passengers in SuperSolo. They do make exceptions, however, for regular SuperSolo drivers, as long as the passenger (coach) is registered as an instructor with them. What they do NOT allow are racers in SuperSolo, with or without passengers, IIRC. My recollections could be wrong....

You should contact tkerrmd, who posted just above. He is trying to put a small group together to share the costs of a coach.

Going down for one day of coaching and then heading back to Atlanta so I can fly out to Montana for some skiing. I hate that I am missing most of WinterFest as the event is always a lot of fun!
