mikev Posted June 14, 2013 Report Posted June 14, 2013 There's a beautiful day on tap for tomorrow! Sunny, high temps in the low 80s... don't forget sunscreen!
coffan Posted June 14, 2013 Report Posted June 14, 2013 Minght not make it. I still haven't got my car back from the shop.
RDG_RCR Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Posted June 14, 2013 Minght not make it. I still haven't got my car back from the shop. Other than the drive to Hyper-fest it won't be MINI centric. So if you don't mind riding shot gun you with someone you can still go. I hear it's a really fun event so if you really want to go, we can make it happen!
Stephatron Posted June 14, 2013 Report Posted June 14, 2013 So I'm leaving from work at 4:30. According to the Google, it should take me an hour and a half to get there, assuming all goes well.

RDG_RCR Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Posted June 14, 2013 I just sent out my number to everyone who said they are going (that doesn't already have it). If I missed you PM me
mikev Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 It was a beautiful day... we had lots of fun watching lots of cars on the track! Even saw a couple of MINIs during the various High Performance Driving Events on the main circuit. Many nice cars on display, some for vendors, some not. Lots of walking... the best place to watch cars on the main circuit is from the paddock area, definitely! Nice concession stand with no significant line, plenty of covered areas to hang out under, a nice stand at pit exit to watch the cars as they come out of the final turn and fly towards start/finish... In the end, I didn't make it long enough to watch the karting event, but I'm sure Tyler and the team did well! Hopefully we beat those PTuning guys!

Thanks to NHarrison and his brother for coaching and spotting and thanks to my team mates Chris and David (Steph bailed on us :rofl:)...I think David was our MVP no spinouts (I'm guilty) and lots of fast consistent driving! I can't wait to do it again! EDIT (DUH) Also, thanks to Mike for setting up the caravan and Rienaldo, Kris K. and George for coming out!! Edited June 17, 2013 by RDG_RCR

I packed the camera and when I took it out the battery was dead, I was so focused on the gopro that I forgot to charge the canon....it's ok though, you know how long it takes me to process pics.:top:
