Great event, thanks for letting me volunteer and instruct.
From my POV, everyone had a great time.

Hats off to everyone who made this happen. Marcus (great track design!), CDI's, Instructors, Volunteers, Chairs, STUDENTS!!! This was a very well oiled-machine and I think many of the students went to bed still smiling. Excellent job with a new venue. Format was excellent, track surface perfect, weather great (even with the Sunday wind). I asked many students if they feel they got their money's worth, and it was a resounding YES!!!! (some even used some 4-letter word to emphasize the "yes"!) :D

One of my most memorable instructing experiences.

Truly a great club and a great crew to make another PDS a great success. I'm very proud to be part of such a great team.

Thanks to everyone, and I am looking forward to the next PDS and seeing more students move on to AX and DE!

A large and sincere thanks to everyone that made the event happen.

Every single person, down to the new water truck driver, was polite, professional and in what has become a hallmark of a great SDR event -- kind.

Shout out to Adam Gill and Vollig Autowerks for sponsoring the inaugural PDS at Viejas and providing diligent tech and mechanical support throughout the weekend. At least two students were saved from mechanical failures without losing any seat time at the Vollig trailer during Saturday's activities.

As I said to many in person this weekend, this is my favorite weekend of the year.

It's one that always makes me proud to be a member of SDR.

ditto ditto ditto.
The smaller asphalt are did not hamper the school.
I heard from students they were impressed with the organization of the weekend - and that we were all nice friendly people.
What else would we be!!??  :bowdown:
