I was looking at the 27th but I have to check my plans first.

Some updates:

Did PM session with proformance racing school, they signed me off for solo. I can do PM sessions now, so I don't have to wake up early.

Also did a track day with HOD, 7 20 minute sessions, instructor signed me off as well. Planning to repeat once more this year.

So 3 solo sign offs this year (1 was from PCA). I am going to keep getting instructions though.

I have track day coming up in few days with PCA this month. In September, planning to do track day with HOD or T2.

SX2 tires and DS2500 still holding off, I might order CSG CP this time if DS2500 are wearing off (have to check brake pads soon) or might as well start using DS1.11 for track days and DS2500 for daily. Lots of weights needed for SX2 and wheel is out of balance, so may be QC is bad? No complains about grip though.

Is Gabe, Gabriel Shin?

I’ll see what I can do. My schedule has been screwy lately.

A lot of guys that run with Audi are instructed to drive really odd lines at the Ridge.

Completed track day with Gabe yesterday, great guy, he gave significant time talking to me (he was doing 2 laps per session) besides instructions. The line was indeed different than Porsche club, Audi club and HOD etc. I assume due to optimization for our platform and plus some.

Met 2 more twins owners at Ridge as well. One guy had less than 200 miles on his GR86, replaced factory oil after 1st session since Gabe suggested. He was pretty experienced and did 2 mins 3 seconds.

I did about 2 minutes 18 seconds
