MSR HPDE Sept 6th/7th with Drivers Edge
Howdy all,
I just got the following email from Rick at www.thedriversedge.net
I'm bummed that we won't be at ECR since that is so close to home that I wouldn't have to stay at a Hotel. Oh Well. Anybody else interested in doing MSR? Anyone want to split the cost of a hotel room?
Thanks!

Man, that's tempting. Got a conflict with my BMW autocross that Sunday, but...
I'm assuming that, although I've run the 1.7 several times (last time out was running in the 1:28s) that I'll start in the lowest class. Is there any kind of evaluation that might allow me to bump up one class?
Thanks for the info, and have a good one,
Mike

I have signed up. I will probably have my wife with me so she probably won't want to share a room.
I was looking forward to going back to EC but I hear the track was in need of repair. Check their website for more information.
See you at the track Dave.

Sure, they will put an instructor in the car with you , if you have the experience and are too fast for the group you will quickly get bumped to a group that suits your experience and speed level. Just let the instructor know you want to move up and he can evaluate you.

Probably in my 01 Yellow Z06. Its possible I'll be in the 96 if it isn't sold yet. The Z06 is already short on rear tires and needs to have the all the fluids flushed before I can track it.
Looking forward to meeting other CF members.

Stop by.
BTW - I'm staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Granbury. Pretty nice place and they have a decent breakfast.

Hi Scot,
I normally park on that end of the paddock too. I'll certainly come by. This will be my first time on the 3.1 and I'm so excited I can hardly control myself. I'm not very fast but I sure do have a great time.

I'm sorry to say they'll have one more open slot in the red run group. I came down with the flu on monday and I'm still feeling under the weather today..... Bummer!
The Drivers Edge is a great group so take advantage of these openings if you can.
Somebody needs to really spank that downhill right hand turn in the middle of the new section this weekend for me! That was going to be my turn for this weekend....

I wish I wish I wish I wish I could be there this week end. I just got my clutch changed so this would be the first time for me on the big course with a working clutch, new LG Pros LTs, and hoosier R6s making it the most fun out of the bedroom a man can have. However, the Army says I have to be in Conroe so to Conroe I go...
