Looking forward to it!!!
I did this format at NJMP Lightning in April and it was almost too much track time (if such thing is possible).

Update: We will now have five 42 minute runs per day versus seven shorter ones. Having seven gets a bit tough as by the time you get off the track, cool down it was time to go back out.

No worries if you get waitlisted as this will be cleared up today.

How does the schedule change affect the coaching?

That certainly would be better for coaching feedback delivery and scheduling, IMO.

Coaching sessions will follow the driving schedule and as ProCoach noted, better for coaching, feedback etc...

One of our Chief Instructors will be managing the scheduling of Dave's time. He can be reached at "Dyke Hensen" <dhensen@gmail.com>.

Besides, while Dave is very fit guy, we don't want to wear him out. I would hate to see him fall asleep during happy hour. LOL!!

So would I!
I agree that this format will work really well. We can come into hot pits, do a quick review, go back out, swap seats, etc, and still have plenty of time for post session review and feedback

Great event. Weather was perfect (rain was predicted for weds). Tons of track time. Will be back next year.
