Thanks guys, fortunately it's a one day thing (hopefully) Monday with my my kidney and they caught it it early on. I thought it was something else and was overly worried.

The best part is I could waste a week of time off catching up on things here, lol. I was hoping to work on my car but this took me out of commission due to the pain. So I sleep, then come here, and read. Heck I even read all of Weld's "Shed Build" from start to finish, and then I found out about his health and I found out I was very fortunate.

1:52, 1:53... something like that. Actually had my first beer today in 10 days.... so that tells you a little how I've been feeling which is why I missed Sonoma.

I was looking at that date too for a possible do-over.... but I'm confirmed for Laguna Seca July 16 already so that may be too close together for my schedule.... we'll see next week.

After many missed track days I finally got out again. Car had some new parts - Tilton 5.5" clutch & 800 series pedals, Woodward column (stolen from my Camaro!), and fire suppression. Everything worked good. Well, not that fire suppression thankfully.

Only real issue was when I killed it too many times getting ready to get on track for 1st session that I overcooked the battery on the starting grid and had to get towed back to the paddock for a jump.
