What I like about this video is that it shows all sides to why I love track days. I love being on track and all the car related stuff, but hanging out with your friends is also what makes it so enjoyable. I'm lucky to have such a great group of friends that I get to share this hobby with. The video captures that.

I cant wait for the Glen event in a couple weeks, the convoy down, the dinners, the campfire smack talk, driving on an amazing track and just hanging out with really good people.

Love the video. Looking forward to next Sunday's trip down.

I picked up my vette from the cottage last weekend. Drove through the mud and snow and dropped it off with Devon. Picking it up next Saturday or Sunday.

Still thinking about buying a trailer.

Also thinking of joining the dark side and picking up a Z06 from the states.

Thinking I better win the lottery....

I'm looking at buying a trailer too ... probably state side ... with the strength of our dollar, you can't beat the prices!

I'm heading down on Friday to run with Trackmasters on the weekend with the intent to stay and run on Monday. If you visit the track on Sunday stop by the garage and say hi, I'm usually the only Canadian there.

We'll be getting into WG around 5pm heading to the Seneca Lodge.. I think dinner, beverages and a bon fire will follow shortly after, you or any of the forum guys going are more then welcome to pop by . Look for us in the Garages on Monday as there will be a dozen of us all grouped together in there somewhere.
