Not exactly. I've got some classic Steve G video for the masses. You were all over the place (insert Pot/Kettle comment here). :roflmao: We need to schedule a Motorhead Monday soon.

Heads up to everyone who went, wanted to go but waited too long to register or just couldn't make the schedule work. Buttonwillow is coming up in a month on November 16th and 17th and even though there won't be a DE school, we still want to encourage students who qualify to TT to register right away. It's a really fun track and we'll be running reverse direction for the first time. It's also your last chance to earn points for the Season Championship. Register here: http://msreg.us/BW1113

chucky was much fun, I'm not really into "track days" on a serious level, but chucky was all i could hope for.

great organization
safe colleagues
great pavement
serious run off opportunities
great scenery, the full moon was very sweet
and spectacular weather last weekend. 85 degrees and no wind.

i really liked the track at my experience and equipment level.

looking forward to next spring

It was a fun weekend. It feels good to be back.

Thanks Robert and Jack as usual for managing the event, and Greg for the pictures.

Great time. Thanks to everyone who makes these such a great event. Thanks, too, to the Track-Side Campers (and Blues Musicians) who made the evenings soooo great. More food (and smack talk) than I needed to consume!

Turned my personal bests running CCW in practice. Too bad I Bonked the timed runs. :surr: :banghead: :banghead: (Mark R. says "don't think so much during Timed Runs" Sage advice. :beerchug: )

Nice driving awards to Greg P., Dan Car., Mark R. (insane ... just insane), Steve G., Martin R., and many, many others who really tore it up and set some personal bests.

Already signed up and "garaged" for Buttonwillow. No Bonking will be allowed there for me. Come on everybody, let's end the year on a high note!!

I agree, another well run event from Jack and Robert. My apologies to whoever I put in the dirt Saturday morning. If I had spun anymore out there I could have put in for a job at the local ballet company. :x Maybe I should replace my online pic with another one, possibly it has me hexed.

I had a blast, and learned tons from my instructor, Dennis Power. Give Dennis a raise, he deserves it!!! :)

Great pix & vids posted here, thanks Greg and Mike!
