I'm thinking of driving up around 6am but since I'm not actually racing, I might take my time.

No time to party... 86CUP is serious business. :p

Anyways since I didn't reserve covered parking, when I arrive I hope to secure parking as near the main building as possible and set up our tent. It'll be a green tent, same one we had at the Summer kickoff. Look for me there!

Day 1 of 2 at Thill is over. How's the survivors doing? Ready for more tomorrow...

The ones who came back already, how was it? Did they open the new section? Can't wait for pictures and stories.

At iceman...yeah, couldn't make this round. But I should have more next time.

Tried to get every twin there... Unfortunately, I don't know who had which numbers, except a few of you... If you don't see your number here, let me know and I'll sift through what I took to see if I got you (I also added a Golf TDI and a Caterham):




























Last but not least (I took 600+ pictures today... Will try to post more in the near future), a bit of a group shot after the last session, getting ready to leave.

A few more I posted to FB but didn't put up here:

Point-by group lining up!





And they're off!




There was also a bit of a battle going on on the track...





Plato passed this S2000... think he might have been a little angry because I kept hearing stories about an S2000 being a bit of a **** on the track, hmmmm.

What a fun and hot day for day two. The morning Solo session was cut short because there were a lot of people driving like idiots; passing with no point by, others refusing to point others by, 6 people went off. Well, for the last part, I was one of the six. However, in my defense, I showed Luc the video of my 360 off-road excursion and he was cool with me and just said that I needed to lower the pressure in my rear tires. I was coming out of turn 2 too hot and spun at almost 70 mph.

Now my car is covered in dust and dirt, inside and out So, afterwards I lowered the rear pressures to 32 and checked the fronts to keep them at 34. However, it seems that a piece dirt got in the valve stem of the front right because it went flat. So, I ran the whole second session with a flat front right and still managed to get a 2:23. Afterwards, I checked the tire for damage and filled it back up and it stayed at pressure for the rest of the day with no issues.

Many thanks to @ddeflyer for the ride-alongs and the great tips and pointers. It helped tremendously.

My stock brakes are toast so I need to get some track pads before the next track day.

With that said, who all is going to the Thunderschliefe run on July 11?
