Default Anyone interested in going to TMP on Sunday?

Toronto Motorsports Park (Cayuga) is opening up this weekend, and I'm thinking of going up on the Sunday to shake the cobwebs out of my brain and track car before heading down to Watkins Glen in a couple of weeks ... anyone else thinking of going?

I'm headed to TMP for some open lapping this Friday, around 4pm or so. Coming from Buffalo with my C5.

Had a great time Friday. LOTS of guys from Toronto in upscale AMG/M cars, lots of tank slappers for them. Bit more traffic than I would have liked but a good experience nonetheless. Met a couple nice guys (E46M and 944T), always nice to meet fellow enthusiasts. I got a kick out of the newer 911 trying to out run me and going off into the grass.

I was able to try out my new brake combination (new Centric Rotors, Power Stop "Track Day" pads, Motul 600 fluid) and was very pleased with the performance. No more fade and overheating brakes. Traction is now the bigger issue. I ran a 1:28ish last year on junk street pads and boiling fluid, with the old gears. Still have to analyze my footage to see if my times improved.

Will be going back on a Friday sometime in the next month or so, will post up before I go.
