If this is your first track day, you probably won't be pushing ultra hard, especially after those Bridgestones start to squirm on you in T-1 at 80mph If you do start to push a little, expect some degradation on the shoulders of the tire, especially the front left. It'll look a little chunky afterward, but nothing to be alarmed about. You won't be cutting 50% off the tire life or anything like that.

Hope to see some forum members this weekend!

Sadly, I won't be attending this one. I /just/ hit 1000 miles on my way to Cincinnati yesterday. I'll be here for this weekend, but I'm gonna try to see if I can't show up for the SCCA solo event at Grissom next Sunday.

Appreciate the offer, and will gladly take it if you're going to the one in May!

Definitely had a good time! Little windy but the weather turned out great! Intermediate was packed, I was second guessing my decision at first lol.

Here's some pics if you don't mind watermarks lol... http://www.abi-photo.com/p622931367/h5b1e7ac6#h5b1e7ac6





And my fastest lap from my iPhone with Harry's Lap Timer, GoPro vids to come...
