There for 3 days.

Saturday Sunday DE for me. 1st DE at this track for me...I am very excited...been asking questions, reading notes and watching video's.
You'll love it. To me the infield is short and easy and the banking is long, bumpy and scary, depending on how much you push yourself. It is exciting.

I drove only on a banked track at Pocono before and last year was my first time in Daytona.
I precticed on a simulator, but the weird Gforces ("Am I getting sucked into the asphalt or into the wall??!!) and looking through the left top of the windshield was a bit disorienting at first, but a lot of fun!
Never did get the maximum speed, I kept short shifting and lifting... Maybe this year...

I think my speedometer stops working at 115. Either that, or I run out of power..

Have fun breaking in the new powerplant this weekend. I'll have to come up with some new tricks to stay ahead of you now..

I took a few laps with TKerrMd at Daytona a few years ago so I have an idea what the banking feels like but only as a passenger. I am sure I will be short shifting and lifting too. I am there just for fun. Viper Bob is going out with me for my 1st session to give me some instruction....hopefully some of my other friends will be ble to do the same for my 1st day.

I will be there racing the enduro and as many of the sprints as my car will take (if it makes it through the enduro)
Peter, can wait to see you run, hopefully the camera guy will get a pick of my car in front of yours as you come around to lap me!!

now I'm really bummed. I was hoping to make the trek down this year, but an axel problem on my trailer will prevent me from going. It won't be done until early November (need to replace the axel).

Default PCOB at Daytona 23rd-25th

I was thinking about driving up to Daytona this weekend and watching a bit of the racing and DE events. Does anyone have a schedule of events?

Default Wow, this is what I like about rennlist

Thanks for the quick response. Is this a PBOC only event? I'm currently a member of Chin and wanted to visit PBOC and watch the event. Can I get in as a spectator?

Yes, go to Gate 40 off of Williamson Road. Tell them you know Rich Cowell and they will roll out the Red Carpet...
