I see you in that pic! Nice to see you here.

Now if I'm hooked in to my Bluetooth is it ok to return a call from the track?

Do you talk with your hands? If so, there could be a risk that another driver might think you were waving to him.

That would be me. Please send me the link.

Just had the best weekend of my short DE experience. Watkins Glen is awesome and even better when you have an instructor that can manage to help even me to make improvements 3 days in a row. Anyone that wants to make a leep forward, ask for Russ Martorana!!!!!!! Sorry Russ, I'm sure
they keep you busy enough.

Hopefully I have just corrected many of the mistakes I was making in the video.

Hi Tom
Rick here (your garage mate at Watkins Glen); glad you had a good time.
Nice shout out for Russ.
