This is all the car you need Grandpa. Looks like a hell of a good time.

You are so right. This car makes me feel in no hurry to pilot an 800 hp 68 Camaro.... in due time.

Having a blast working on my skills (and balls) in this dirty little rat.

I am often lucky.... but I was not too smart this weekend.... made too aggressive of a pass in the final lead-follow session on Sunday to get bumped to Group 4. So now I have to do it again next time.

Still, had a great weekend running the car and really like the NASA environment and classroom downloads after each session. Great learning environment - these NASA instructors all actually want you to get better and move up the ladder. So until next time....

Was at NASA Sonoma mostly in support of Greg and his car, but I did run both days in HPDE4 in my effort to get qualified for Time Trial license. And even though I had a wheels off incident I got the go ahead. Look out. LOL

I must say driving in 3 sessions of combined HPDE4 and TT -- with nearly 100 cars on track -- it was a blast and forced you to be absolutely aware and on your game at all times. It was so much FUN and great track experience. Best weekend I've had. Hanging with Greg and all of the mutual friends made it obviously so much better.

Did get 2 or 3 clean laps during the HPDE4 only sessions and improved my PB by 2 seconds so that was nice.

Anyway, I will be running TT1 class in September it looks like. Maybe that slow orange 69 Camaro of Gaetano will show up finally.
