Yeah, no patience is right.
Just you wait my friend till our TR's are winding and screaming all over the place. Your family crest streaking by will give em all nightmares.
Gonna tape up the black ***** and run it a little easy on Sunday.
I will post up some in car and vid from others.

I will be there on Sunday.
And I am betting it won't rain. Rain never lasts more than two days in SoCal ever.
And if it does, not big deal. I have driven Cal Speedway twice now in the rain. One was a full torrential down-pour. I was driving on race tires and I just had to be very very soft applying the throttle.

I'll be there on Sunday. First track day.
Should I be worried about oil pickup issues on the banking? I'm planning on pouring an extra quart in.
Anything else I should know my first time out? I've only done 3 autocrosses so far, and only one in this car, so I'm pretty much as green as it gets.
I just wanna avoid the walls, that's my big plan.

Just do the extra oil, bleed brakes if you know how, check fluids, take everything loose including mats out of the car, check tire pressure and lug nuts. Bring a lugnut/torque wrench to the track with you and a full tank of gas. Check your nuts after each session. Drive with your big head and you will be fine. If you need some help getting set-up come fine me. I'll be in a CE Z06 next to a black NSX or go introduce yourself to "Oli" in the yellow 22 T1 car. He is one of the nicest guys in the paddock.

Looks like he made it
Brisk 50*F day in SoCal, great day to stretch out all 200 rwhp of this TPI.
We had a little drizzle and puddles to contend with in the morning.
I got off to a quick start and nearly lost it on the 1st turn of the day on cold tires.
This vid is after a little more track time:
I'd highly recommend this to anyone that enjoys driving their vette like god intended. Speedventures lets in all sorts, from seasoned racers to reckless idiots, surely you fit in there somewhere, all you need is ~$200 and a pulse.
(And why was I the only C4 there? )
