Who's in? Looks like a big crowd this year.

Looking forward to running the full course again.

We will be there. The new pavement makes this already great track even better!

Was there last week with Chin--if you haven't driven the new pave yet you're in for a treat.

Went to sign up for this event--saw 70+ cars in Black and decided against it.

I'll be the coach at the NNJR Advanced Event in mid September. Don't think I'll be at this one in July...

Yeah, I really enjoy the full course also, but after running the short course numerous times last year I had such a blast it wouldn't bother me at all if a group opted to run it.....it's just........fast!

And speaking of fast--Mosport tomorrow.......

Can't wait for Mosport. One of my favorite fast tracks.

I will be at both WGI NNJR events with the Aspen crew. Can't wait to spend time together VR at the advanced event.

The new surface is great. Very smooth and fast. My advice is take time the first time on it building speed. There are differences in how you drive certain places on the track that require a different technique. To much speed to early on learning this could be a bad thing.

Hope I don't blow a motor this year!

Can't wait!

And yes, Matt's suggestions vis a vis the new Glen surface are spot on, also discussed briefly in the Ask The Coach thread.

I'm in. Will be there with the Paul Miller contingent. Looking forward to the long course as well, although I must admit I enjoyed the short course more than I thought I would when we ran it last year.
