'I NEED A GOOD RELIABLE COMPETITIVE RACECAR"
the red one needed too much updating for me to race it.... and the white one turned into a jinxed nightmare on goofy stuff..... including me breaking the back window when the guy who bought it took it for a test drive...... so i knocked another $500 of the price for that stupidity!!!

HDPE 1 and 2 are full, I guess I should be ok for HPDE 3, but I have never driven on the new Circuit and don't want to hold folks up learning the line.
I got an e-mail saying I'm overqualified for Group 2 so they are bumping me into Group 3. Looks like we will be learning the track together. There is apparently only around 16 driver in Group 3.
There is apparently a track walk-through on Friday night. I may be able to make it down for that, let me know if you are interested in going.

Pete,
I haven't signed up yet, but I am planing on taking Friday off and getting my car ready, I need to see what kind of brake pads I have left and whether I can get thought the weekend. My new pads and rotors may not get here in time.
Who has ATE blue locally?
Trying to get to SP Friday evening will be tough since the traffic going north blows, I will pass on that.
Also keeping a eye on the weather, my RA1's are slicks now.

What a coincidence. I am taking Friday off to get my STI ready for the weekend too. If your pads do not show on Friday, I have a brand new, unmounted set of Carbotech XP10s (front) and XP8s (rear) that I could sell you for what I payed (including shipping). I can just order another set since my s2000 will not be on the track till May 6th. I also have a buddy who has a case or two of ATE so you could buy a liter. I will probably do the walk through Friday night since I have never driven on Shenandoah.

hahah..you got that before I edited it...(i changed my bad word)
Yes, we raced through there.... i watched a guy's wheel pop off behind me as he went sailing into the tires.... doh!
I guess you get used to banked turns, but my neck definately hurt after that weekend.
