Why i hate katech!!!!!!
 
Im sitting in my office at work and i feel like iv been 12 rounds with Tyson!! returned from Track Attack 2014 last night. forced to sit through training classes that have made me a better driver. forced to eat great food and enjoy world class cigars with fine wine. forced to hang out with the best company and all there amazing people. Forced to listen to the most amazing race car drivers that Corvette has ever known. Had to endure more track time than i could ever dream of with a instructor who forced a smile on my face i could not get rid of!! UGH,,,,, Special thanks to: Katech--Jason Harding-all the guys who fix these machines if needed-Jim(painrace)painter-poor-sha(sean)-Jim hall- Short-throw and Johnny O'connell and Andy Pilgrim!!!! and to everyone who attended track attack. Ugh....I dont want to be here today!!! I want to be at Autobahn.. Pencil me in for next year so i can Hate Katech all over again:D

I wish I hated work as much as you hate Katech!

Luckily our computers allow me to piss away time on CF during the day time.

Good report. Unfortunately, lots of members will just see your title and get the impression that you have a serious problem with Katech and not read the thread. I jumped in and read it because I couldn't believe anyone had a problem with those guys. I agree, they are a first class act.

You are correct my friend. Guys, listen up. i ship my Z to katech and back, i fly round trip ofcourse from N.C. to IL. 350$ !! Hotel is 99 a night. most of the food is catered. and damn good i might add. 2 day driving school with Johnney O and Andy P. How can you beat that. you can spend all day talking with these guys. and the stories are amazing. They will drive your car, or you can follow them in a chase car to show you the lines of the track. frank is the owner of the beautiful Rig that makes a lap of the country to pick up cars before track attack. your car is in the best of hands!!! not a scuff! Then frank delivers your amazing beast back home safe and sound. BTW, i do not want to leave out the instructors who ride with the newbees like me. these guys are the best and truley help you become a better driver......there is so much more, but back to work now:(
