Anyone interested in Laguna Seca Nov 9???

Going up there with a buddy for Friday's HPDE.

A TON of VW R32's for some reason... must be a car club thing.

I should sent you my tapes of me on track there...in races. The most important thing to do there is go home with your car not damaged. Since this is your first event..TAKE IT EASY. There are walls to hit there...not trying to scare you..but there are no F1 recruiters looking for their next Michael. Have fun..but be safe. Call me again if you want and I can talk you through the turns.

I know a couple of guys going to the time attack up there. Laguna's a nice track. Unfortunately, Buttonwillow is the same weekend down here.

I have got to say... Laguna Seca is awesome!

The track is just beautiful. After a day of tracking five sessions, I am exhausted.

I will post pics and do a write-up of the experiences of the only E90 and E92 at this event.

I think I have a new bug!

Dang... Before Laguna Seca, my front brake/rear brake maintenance was 24k/25k. Now they are 14k/20k LOL...

My oil maintenance was at 15k. Now it's at 13k.

I change every 5k anyways.
