It might add an hour, even an hour and a half to your return trip.
Let's put it into perspective... shall we?
How many times will you get two days in a row at Spring Mountain to really learn the track and get fast? Is it worth an extra 30-90 minutes sitting in traffic to have that opportunity? I think so!!!
Not only that, but there's no reason you can't just run the morning sessions Sunday and skip the time attack. You'll be on the road by 1PM even if you stay for lunch, and by then the traffic through the desert hasn't picked up yet. (Saturday or Sunday, you'll hit traffic coming into LA)
C'mon patrick... TWO DAYS!!! (Rememer how you wished you'd gone for both days at Big Willow last year???
Think of how much faster you'd have been able to go if you'd picked up day two where you left off day one.

It was time for an update and the new blue looked much better than the new yellow.
fwiw I still have roots to my Spa AP1. If I ever build a racecar it will be spa yellow ap1.

My status as of now for Pahrump is a bit up in the air. I am hearing really ugly sounds from the rear of my car. 
I am going to have it looked at this weekend. I hoping its just a wheel bearing or something like that.

Patrick,
Sent you a PM, but you can also drive by my place and we can put it on jack stands and take a look.
