Thanks Paulie. Always like to try a new track. TWS was pretty rough but it was a lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Guys, MSR's track surface is not smooth at all. The straights have warped surfaces that will get your car almost airborne if you are not careful. I'm going on Thurs to test it out again

You can use the NOS bottles - that I am going to have to bring to keep up with everyone - as a pillow this time.

If I wasn't hauling two cars down I could put a hammock and a fridge full of beer in there.

Paulie MSR is more of a Miata track, TWS is more of a GT2 track. MSR is safer, the facilities much nicer, and more convenient to get to. However, you can't do this at MSR:


TWS 10/08 CW 997TT chases 997GT2

a (turbo) Miata track

I didn't want to say anything negative about MSR....I support Peter 100% and the Tx2K events, the worlds greatest all around car event, IMO.

However, MSR is an oversized go cart track. Even my M3 would have a tough time stretching her legs there. TWS, that is a very bad *** track.

Tell me about it, Paulie. BTW, everyone needs to understand that Peter is trying to make everyone happy w/ this event. The MSR day is for the track junkies. There will be PLENTY of night action for the big turbo high hp cars to stretch their legs on the Mexican Tollway/Autobahn.....which is amazingly just a short trip from the venue

MSR Houston is good enough for CART (Indy) cars, so I think it'll do just fine for us! It's closer, nicer and will be great at TX2K9.
