I just got a JURY SUMMONS for 4 days beginning September 3rd --- so PIR "appears" to be out for me on the 6th! BUT -- always the big BUTT.... sometimes they kick your butt out if you don't get picked for a jury -- and this jury duty is in Redmond -- so that's a small court and if they ask me any questions I'm certain to fail. HAHAHAHAHAHA



I'm going to do my best to try to run on the 6th at PIR....


REVISED POST:


After reading the event -- this is driver training with a 4 hour classroom on the 5th.... So I'm not interested in that... I've done a lot of schools -- I don't need to start learning the definition of an apex....and I'd have to be excused from jury duty on the 4th - in order to get down to Ptown early enough on the 5th...

Greg... the classroom training is typically for beginners who have never been on a track. I'm confident that you can be excused from the classroom stuff since you have have experience with other clubs. I will make a call tomorrow to find out for sure and let you know.

Greg... Regarding the track day out at PIR on September 6th-- I talked to Mike Smith at Cascade Sports Car Club and he said since you have the experience, you do not have to attend the class room session on the 5th... just show up on Friday morning at the track and you can run

They will have an instructor ride along with you on the first session to check you out, and show you the lines... then you will be good to go solo the rest of the day. Now hopefully you can skip out on jury duty Friday! I am going to get signed up tonight... look forward to meeting up with you out there!

Greg... that's cool if you can't make it

I hope you can but no worries. I know that jury duty is unpredictable. I would recommend getting signed up to reserve a spot. You can cancel one or two days before the event and they won't charge you anything. If there are any others guys in Oregon or Washington interested in getting their car out on the track just go to Cascade Sports Car Club and sign up... It would be great to see some other Lat G guys out there.
