I'm scared to see our FedEx bill getting ready for this event..... I've got 4 separate overnight deliveries just for tomorrow! Hope everything shows up on time.

Again welcome all the sponsors, especially Classic Hand Car Wash (there Paulie).
Should be good. Just jones'n for my groovy t's.

Gone but not forgotten...

Anybody with experience at MSR willing to give me a ride or instructions first session? Only need 3 or 4 quick laps and then I can fly solo.

I can show you the line if it is counter clockwise, but if it is clockwise not so much. I have only run clockwise on the short track.

Obviously can't show you how to drive, your too good for me! See you guys out there.

Rob,

Likewise, unfortunately I only run the 345's so no 315's. I believe Jegs has them in stock though.

Hey guys, it's 3/11 and we need 3 more to sign up for the MSR event. I am actually leaning towards running the track clockwise, this will MINIMIZE the chance of getting out of shape and into the wall on the front straight. For reference, here's a lap of MSR clockwise in a new Hennessey ZR1.

Probably a prudent call. If you do that then I better slot down into Beginners. I've only run CCW.

CW is actually a smoother flow at MSR. The Porsche Driving Experience instructors come twice a year and have switched to running it CW as well. Unfortunately I will miss you guys there as I will be off skiing

I might need an instructor as well if it is clockwise, at least for a few laps
