I plan to swing by in the vette if the weather cooperates. Looks like it will.

Completely forgot about last night. Laid down on the couch at 6ish, woke up at 8ish lol

On the plus side, got some fresh rubber (Mich Pilot Super Sports) on the stock wheels for the track. Now to swing by CorvetteMods (despite their bad rep) and snag some ZR1 repros for the run-flats and "daily duty."

I figured you would have run the Toyo R888 or the Nitto NT01's on the track.

Nah, I'm not trying to jump right onto an R compound for the track. R comps are known to cover mistakes.

Texas World Speedway - College Station, TX
Cresson Motorsports Ranch - Cresson, TX

I wanted to get in at NOLA or CotA, but those weekends just weren't in the cards. Not to mention a weekend at CotA is $1000.... where as TWS, Cresson, MSR Houston, and the other smaller tracks are about $250 - $350 a weekend.

I can't wait for Lou to finish his track up in Anna and open it up to the run groups like Driver's Edge, PCA, Chin, etc.

Although... speaking of Malibu, maybe we should organize a weekend for the entirety of DFW CF members to meet up at Dallas Karting Complex and have some fun tear-assing around the track!
