Okay, to recap:
I've been working with Russell Racing to get a special deal for our group of Bay Area S2K owners. After some negotiations, this is how the course stands now.
As it stands now:
The Price - $675 (the same price as their regular all day High Performance Class)
The Date - November 8th at Sears Point Raceway
The Students - 20-24 S2000 owners interested in improving their driving (racing) technique.
The Details -
One thing you do need to know is that Sears Point is still going through a major construction project and turns 10,11 and 12(just before the start/finish line) will be closed. You will come down the hill from turn 9 to a 90 degree right hander straight through turn 1 and up the hill.
7:45 AM Honda S2000 group arrives
8:00 AM Check tire pressures
8:30 AM Classroom discussion, emphasis on autocross and club racing
9:30 AM Break into 4 groups of 4
Groups 'A'& 'B' to autocross for 1 1/2 hours
Group 'C' to skid car (timed), Group 'D' to high speed lanes
Groups 'C' & 'D' rotate at 45 minutes
11:00 AM Groups 'A' & 'B' rotate with Groups 'C' & 'D'
12:30 PM Lunch at Viansa (included)
1:30 PM Break into 2 groups of 8
Groups 'A' & 'B' rotate through upper loop and modified lower loop, drills and learning segments of the track, specific turn- ins, apexes, exits, braking zones,gear selection etc.
3:00 PM Groups rotate on full track drives working on line, focus, smoothness, concentration and speed
5:00 PM Graduation ceremony
The goal is to make this program significantly more racing focused than the normal High Performance Course with a different slant to some of the drills you may have already done. Additionally, some of the drills are good to practice more than just one time several months prior to this custom program.
Your Task:
Let me know if your totally and completely in! If there's something you don't like that is keeping you from joining, let me know that too! Changes can be made, this is OUR class! They want me to pay them up front, so I'll need to collect payments from you guys I'll PM everyone details if we have enough interest.

Is this a SCCA sanction event or so (meaning do I get my SCCA license from this)? At any rate, I am down for this....although I may have an E46 ///M3 by the time it rolls around.
BTW> Are you married?

I'm in for sure - I've been wanting to do this for some time now.
Let me know if this will happen for sure so I can take the day off work asap.
Sounds like you've done a lot of work - thanks!

Pam, I am so IN!!! I can send a check anytime! If I end up overseas, I am sure another S2000 owner will be happy to take over then. So are you taking this course and your husband taking pix?
