[B]Steve, so what are you driving these days? rental? You should come up and hang anyway and maybe give us more pointers as it's the first time at Buttonwillow for quite a few of us

Steve, better yet, get all the heel-and-toe done before going into magic mountain. Letting off the gas near the top is BAD....even on a FWD car. Almost put my G20 on it's lid by sliding off sideways into the dirt. For those not convinced, it's a fun track....nothing beats going flat out on Talladega (long banked sweeper) at close to triple digits (on my G20 anyway).
BTW, loaner helmets are nasty....I personally wouldn't want to put on a helmet that's been on another person's sweaty head!!!

Good to hear Steve, you know it won't be the same without you. Don't worry Katy will let you take hers for a few laps.
