This a all make track day so yes bring your friends even if they drive a Lexus

Yes helmets are required.Convertibles with hard folding roofs or proper roll over protection are allowed.

Yes because the date is commited to.Whether it is Durham's day or mine will be determined later on.

Great, thanks for the info. Have a friend with a MkV GTI interested as is my brother who has a Porsche Boxster S... will do my best to convince them to come out, hopefully be in touch shortly!

Just so nobody is confused,this what the DDT looks like today.It was doubled in length about 5 years ago.

FBTO · 05-08-2009, 12:42 PM

So which version are we actually running? Can you color in the full map showing the config we are using?

That would involve some technical skill

How is registration coming along so far? Waiting to hear back from my buddy but he is out of town for a few days... will try and get it sorted out and booked soon though. Also wondering what the policy is on guests, ie. I assume the $200 fee is per car?

ALM3 · 05-11-2009, 06:30 PM

Oh, that is different! I have only seen it run what appears backwards. Corner 12 down to 8 in some fashion. Can't we just do a banzai run to 8 and see what top speed we can hit going down the hill to 8?

Clockwise is the natural direction for that track.Last year when I was there,about 8000 in 3rd gear was the quickest that I saw coming into the upper chicane which is somewhere around 160 kph.If you run without the chicanes I am sure you would be going a heck of a lot quicker and from a safety point of view that would not be a very smart thing entering corner 12 with the wall being fairly close.I was turning low 70 second laps in this configuration and having a heck of a lot of fun as there are a couple of 3 rd gear corners that you have to work up to get right.I was still managing to get the brakes quite warm without having to brake hard for corner 12 after a straight run up!

The $200 is per car and if there are going to be guests there will be an extra charge for the lunch.If there are 2 drivers per car the $200 is per driver.

I am starting to get people signing up and I had 3 guys with fast Corvettes and 1 Porsche sign up today.

Gearhead999s · 05-20-2009, 02:50 PM

So anybody else coming?
