I'll miss watching the post-paved tracking resume, but I'll be there two weeks later for a NASA HPDE. Looking forward to it!

Please post up if you have any videos of the "new" track. I'll be there the March 8-9 with Chin and can use all the help I can get.

Weather permitting, I'll take some video Thursday with VIR Club and post it. We get a track walk with Peter Krause first so I will post some photos from that too.

I will be there, walking the track Thursday night if weather permits. Instructing for Rezoom on Friday, and Chin over the week end. If wet, or ice, will not be driving the track, but may be riding with my student. Red Z06, #911. Will post a video next week. For those going, see you there.

I shouldn't rag on the Camry - that's what I traded in for my C5. Talk about apples and oranges!

Default Extra pavement at Oak Tree

Peter Krause thinks you can carry 2mph more through Oak Tree with this extra pavement. I am standing past T11 and the Oak Tree apex is at the top of the hill on the right.

Default T1 Exit to T3

This whole section is 6 ft wider from the exit of T1 to entry of T3. So now when you turn into T3, you are farther away from the apex so you need to turn in sooner.

Thanks for the posts! I will be there this weekend with Chin in the Yellow C5 Z06 - Number 09.

What was the grip like on the new surface?
