Eagles Canyon Raceway TOY RUN 12/8/2012

[mach1]

I think Ken means we're out there to have fun and not expect to set any records. There are no instructors so beginner's need to be extra careful not to overwork their brakes. ECR is not a track you want to go off. Intermediates will probably be too crowded for clean runs so just work on your weak spots. Just have fun out there.

Oh, and if you're an autocrosser and expect ECR to be a cinch, you may wanna enter Pike's Peak next year too.

Gotcha, my wife will be driving for her first time ever in the beginner group, I am going to ride with to instruct, hopefully everyone takes the event as serious as any other DE from a safety standpoint.

IIRC I'm not sure if they allow passengers unless you're a designated instructor I could be wrong though. Beginner group will be lead follow at 1/2 to 3/4 speed anyway, no real danger if you follow the crowd.

I had to cancel, I'm racing at TWS that weekend.

KenO is a lying bastard, I've never had a problem with traffic and run as hard as I wanted in previous years.

Real men hit traffic.

[CosmosMpower]

Real men hit mountain boulders.

Fixed

You are unlikely to get more than a couple of clean, unimpeded laps. Its a charity event to let people on the track for fun and a good cause, not a paid license to try to set your personal best. If you can, great, but don't be surprised if a miata keeps reeling in your GT3 and looking for a point by, or some doosh refuses to give you one.

Not sure who you are talking to, no one here can afford a GT3....well except ken o

I can't wait to take a few laps in his new GT3.

Are you looking at my browser history? I have been looking at GT3s.

[Jiggerachi]

I really really want to make it out to this, but not sure if my ignition-might-randomly-shit-the-bed failure is still a problem. I guess this is one way to find out, haha.

Stock radiators ever a problem in this setting?

The last P-car worked out so well for you.

A properly functioning stock cooling system will be fine unless you have forced induction.

Yep and unless that suitcase full of cash we talked about shows up in time ill disclose the rest if your browser history
