I would like to do it on multiple forums and have a big back and forth about why our track days are better.

That's how things are done around here right?
LOL!

yes please send me the break down on how to run it properly- Ill be sure to run off some copies here at the shop

seriously though- keep me posted-

i think that's right... I actually spoke to him as well. seems like a good guy, gonna head over to del. at some point and pick up some of his old gear.

though heading to panama for the holidays so monies pretty tight at the moment...

Still totally psyched with the performance of this beast... I'm at high risk of import fanboy conversion.

I will find out the hard way with 650RWHP-

It was an adjustment for me to drive an AWD car when I first did on the track- everything I ever raced was midengine/RWD or single seater-

on that note-

I assume you saw the senna movie? I just watched it this weekend- amazing movie-

if you can handle a 600 rwhp car, you can handle anything.

several of us saw the Senna movie at the Baltimore GP. i didn't watch F1 till late 90's, those guys were crazy to even get into those cars, very little regards for safety, everything was focused around speed.

I happened to be watching the imola race live when senna was killed- many of us that I grew up racing with (karting/starmazda etc) wore certain color gloves or shoes, or had paint schemes simply because of guys such as senna- and wanting to show tribute to them-

There was such a lack of head protection it's crazy- but until something bad happens most racers simply dismiss the risk-

would be cool to throw up a projector at the shop over the winter- watch it- and have some food and drinks as a group-

cheers

PS- 600 RWHP is fun- the panoz LMP1 car i drove was retarded at 1960 lbs and 700something HP LOL!
