Pete - the new dates work for me personally - but my track support BR Racing may have issues - I would love to do this - just keep me in the loop - if BR Racing comes to the event I'll come - if they can't make it - I can't make it.

we could just plan for April - weather should be very very nice.

Tracks I would go to for this event:

Laguna
Infineon
Thunderhill
Reno
Buttonwillow
Miller
WSIR
Fontana
Spring Mountain

I don't think we want a particular track - just an event of "close" friends

Buttonwillow is my vote - cheap/fun track - no walls - easy to get to…

Pete

Please add my friend Gordon to the event. He is driving Z06 and super fast and fun. He has been racing 25 hours for Thunderhill for over 12 years. I have e-mail both of you. We just got done LS yesterday in super dense traffic and major lift up T5 and still managed 1:39

Better chance (about 99%) of perfect weather= no rain and high/low temps of 40/79f average[/QUOTE].

Hi Pete! Great date and nights wouldn't be so cold like in November (can be low 30's, right? Brrrr...).
BTW, did you know the Ferrari Club has the "Virginia City Hillclimb" event that weekend (Sa/Su -open to everyone) with practice runs I think on Friday? Great opportunity for a little detour... :-)

Speedoflight, I remember meeting you back in 2010 at Laguna. I was driving my B5 Audi A4 at the event. Here's a clip of a session with you in it. Including a pretty good battle with a RX8, driven by a pro driver. He showed me no respect, passing me right out of pit exit.
