[AdamkSRT8]

I see that. Im asking your point of.view

[Plum Crazy]

To my knowledge, no club members have taken their cars to Eagles Canyon, this will be the first time.

[AdamkSRT8]

Ah ok. What about cresson?

[ajp86]

You sign in, they give you the schedule with the class & track time. You go to class first, then the track, then class and so on.

[AdamkSRT8]

Ok Kool just like bikes then

[surfer1420]

Looks like fun. Maybe a "Race Team" event? Hey Bill, what do you think? TOO far out for me to say if I can make it, but if I'm in town, I'll at least head out to watch.

Yes Lets support this !! Race team This will be a Qualifying event !!!
come on out !!

all Road racing Events will be Qualifying event!!!! so get register ! see how you do on the road course.

Remember there will be an instructor with you!
and a limited amount of spots available !!

..See you at the track ..

[Overpowered]

Bump.

Who wants to run?

Who wants to watch?

Who wants to sit home and do nothing? JK.

I hope that instructors may give rides to people to experience it from the passenger seat. If they do, I'm sure it will be first come/first ask/first serve.
Helmets are required so either bring one, arrange borrowing one or plan on paying money to rent one if you wanna ride.

Nice looks like you all had a great time

[Overpowered]

Had a great time with our DFWLX group of drivers (we represented Very well).

The track is definitely a lot of fun and a challenge to our cars and racing techniques.

I learned a lot and consistently reduced lap times from run to run.

This is a great track and will stay on my list with MSR (Cresson) as local tracks to road race at.

I will post some video and hopefully be able to show Qstarz lap timing data in the video - once I get thru my technical challenges.

Adam - great video action in your car.
Chuck - great pictures.
