Anyone headed out to the ridge in July? Hoping to make it to one of the Turn2 lapping days.

I'm not really sure. I didn't plan on running at all until fall but I am in a bind right now. I'll try to post up with notice if I plan on running but it is going to be pretty sporadic for me this year. I'd really like to put more time at PR to be honest. Feel like I need a bit of change and I have grown a bit too comfortable at the ridge.

I might take a look at the dates and try to get out there late in June as well. Let me know if you ever make any plans. I've been thinking about trying 17x8 wheels for more feel/fun. And possibly switching out my CSG FLAs to something a bit nicer. Haven't done anything to my car besides removing the supercharger in a long time. How are those T2s? |

When I drive around with ladies in my car with my Tarmac 2's they complain that they need a sports bra as their lady parts bounce around a lot.

I haven't done the ridge yet. It's close to two hours out from where I live (Seattle downtown), while pacific is just a 40 minute drive. It's a lot more manageable for me to take a day off and hit up pacific than it is to do the ridge, in terms of departure and return times relative to seattle.

I agree the Ridge is worth it as well. My appreciation for Pacific has improved since they redid the 5a/b, 6 curbing and the better FIA curbing in 3b. Really improved the experience and reduced some of the danger. Those previous curbs in 5ab/6 were 2 feet tall and I've seen them rip out undercarriages before. The Ridge hadn't paved the chicane yet when I ran there earlier this month but the skybridge is done and it's very cool and it looks like they're setting up to add more pavement/paddock really soon as well.

+1 on the ridge being worth the hike.
The only thing I don't like about it is the curbing on the outside of 8b and up the hill. It sucks you in if you track out onto it. I also don't like that I'm not as fast as y'all around it |

Water always ran across the track a bit where that access road is on the front straight. Wonder if it will be worse with the chicane there.
