Next time you go we will have to make sure we run in the same class. Not sure if I will be able to do the later Sept one because of work...

Thanks for letting us know here, but you should start a thread to let everyone know.

I know, I am excited. I hope to get a catch can or 1LE oil separator by then. I got the new "strong" MAF sensor coming this week. Never realized I had a weak MAF sensor until I had to clean my Vararam after Gingerman.

Mid Ohio is getting dang pricey. $200 for 1 hour???

Nelson Ledges, which is not nearly as nice of a track, was like $150 for 5+ hours private track rental. We all left because we were TIRED, not because we were out of track time. Heck, they have several open "FunDays" a month. 6 hours open track, $130. Thats less than $22 an hour.

We should try to schedule a track day up there sometime.

Mid Ohio is pricey but its worth doing occaisonally. I'll see if I can free my schedule up one of those two days some of you will be at the track and maybe I can make it up!

2010 Camaro SS modified extensively. I stretched the body to make it a 4 door, but I swapped in the 3.6L DI V6 for fuel economy. Then I picked up a corvette body around the V8. I also swapped the body for a C2 Z28. (In short I traded it for three cars, a Corvette Z06r, a C2 Camaro Z28, and a Cadillac CTS Summer Performance package 3.6L DI with Aisin 6spd.)

5hrs nonstop on the track?! I have never seen any track do that, not sure I would want to. it is always 20 minutes on, 40 minutes off. when we went 2 gingerman, it was still only 2hrs of actual track time.
the dates most recently are full days. Which will be 1.5 to 2hrs of actual track time.
