I just found out friends from Hawaii will be in town so i'll most likely not go.
Yes you leave your stuff on the ground by where you parked your car. I don't think theft is a problem, but I wouldn't bring a toolbox full of snap-on parts. Overall everyone is nice and mature. |

Woah, that was awesome!
I had a great time, and lucked out in getting @ImperiousRex as a teacher -- plus, he gave me a ride in his BRZ so I could see how it's supposed to be done. As the day went on, my confidence increased and I started driving faster. But by the last session, I was sliding around quite a bit (well, as much as the nannies would let me). I think better tires would be a significant help. (I have the factory Bridgestones). I'm looking forward to tracking again. |

I thought it felt really good, but I don't have anything to compare it to. I do think that my tires (and/or track condition) were a factor at the end of the day, once I got more comfortable and started driving faster. I did manage to stay on the track, so that's a plus.
Riding along with ImperiousRex, the grip was amazing. Never felt so many g's in a car before. |
