The camaro would be manageable for me too but it's in Texas at a shop getting some post GG tour work done.

Have you driven Laguna in any car before?

Glad you're not in my group....

If you're in red, everybody's in your group. Come track day, movements (out of red) will be necessary, as you Bay Area types just live to create traffic jams everywhere you go. I usually wind up volunteering to go down, then wind up with tons of track all to myself in yellow . . . Nobody wants to be yellow.

Depending on how the car's behaving, I could go up one. Since you've got the full pajamas and extra-loud exhaust, Dave, you should aim for green.

Tomorrow may include some new brake pad bedding on a lovely country road . . .

No. In any car. Was thinking about doing yellow, still may. But if i sleep at a Holiday Inn the night before, i might just do green. Seriously though, i know i can hold my own in the Camaro, and am better in the P=car. Not knowing the track. But, knowing the racing line and big noticable apexes, will help, alot.

Depending on how i'm doing too. Might start in Yellow, but it will be a fast day (time wise, trac time limited). But, i have a few buddies in red that i know i can keep up with.... we'll see, not gonna learn by being on the couch...

I think I am going to pass
Finally started working on the Firebird
again after having it sit for over a year
No time to prep and load up if I want to
keep that project going
Play safe and have fun

Nate and Paul both said for me to go with the red group. They were totally right. As intimated as i was, and maybe going with the newbs, staying up in red was the ticket.
Last run session they put red+ with red and that was the only time i needed to wave anybody by...
That is an incredible car too drive. And yes, i activated the ABS at least 10 times and the traction control came on twice, and that is a strange feeling.

Anyways, till next time...mike
