Hey everyone!
I met you guys at CMP and we talked about my sports car club down here in SC. Does anyone remember? You said you were jealous that our school lets us use parking lots for autocrosses?!? Ring a bell?
Anyway, I am going to be joining you for Summit Point and I wanted to get a few details because I'm a little confused at the moment.
First off, I'd like to know what your names are again. I remember RJ because he was one heck of a driver, and I definately remember working with a cool guy who runs grid. But the rest of you escape me (sorry).
Secondly, I have been dragging my friends to track events all summer and finally growing some interest in real hits of the GFCP in my club. Rob, a good friend, is coming with me to Hyperfest, but as a drifter. He's really good at it too, so I hope to see him do well. He did a NASA-SE event a few months ago and finished second behind a BMW-sponsored driver. Anyway, he was told that he would have practice on Jefferson Circuit Friday from 6-8, but somewhere I saw the track wouldn't be open until 6. If that's true, how are we supposed to get him paddocked, the car off the trailer, and out on the track in 0 min?
Thirdly, I have heard RJ and others on corner-carvers talking about setting up in the woods away from the bling off. I'm confused. I've never been to Summit Point, but I seem to have a knack for setting up in the wrong place at a new track. Guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Finally, I'm running in HPDE 3 and in the SE they won't let me have a passenger, but I remember that guy (whom I've now forgotten) letting me ride with HPDE 3 drivers (thanks again--that was a blast). Anyway, Rob has never been on a track at speed and I was hoping I could take him for a few laps... any chance of that happening?
Anyway, it's good to finally find you guy's website. I look forward to seeing you all this upcoming weekend!
