I know that Robert has been trying his hand at designing courses. Will they use it? Bring your stones in case we don't like it. ;)

I'll be there, in a much slower car
I'm in for the practice on Sat. and the event on Sunday.
Speaking of Saturday, Doesn't BMW have an event at the Bus Lot on 8/15?

Depends on when I get back into town.... if it's super late then I might not show up... but I've paid already, so even if I roll into town at 2am, my cheap ass will likely be there.
I'm in. :burnrubr:
Einsteins @ 7, anybody?
Sure. We can all determine the best way to rag on Robert's course that will bring him to tears. ::Banana::Quote:

I still like my orignal course better (maybe because I did it), but I have to go with Greg's experience and as jrj512 said it may have been too jiggy for a first event. Greg may be keeping me from getting beatup after the event (Looked good on paper but drove like crap).
edit.
Just sent Greg a revised design in between the orignal and his changes. You guys may get to make me cry yet. ;)
Exactly why I won't design a course!Quote:

I'm glad we didn't use that course the day after the novice school in the spring, and I found it very challenging to figure out. On the other hand, ovals are easy.
Worst. Course. Ever.
Not really. I really liked the course and I felt fast, but my times did not show that. I guess I was just missing the shortcut.

Tire class was a tough battle today. The first 7 out of 11 drivers (I think) were within 1 second of each other.

Probably one of the top three best courses for pennington. Nice job Robert!
I liked the course but wasn't crazy about how it was coned. Maybe it's just me - but it I found it visually confusing in 2-3 spots.
Could be that Robert learned that from Roger "The Real" Johnson. He likes "Hey, look at me!" cones.Quote:

Thanks guys, I have to give most of the credit to Greg. The course was a lot different than what I had in mind, but I had fun driving it and liked the finished product. I would still like to do the original course sometime, and probably get beat up after the event or during the course walk.
Is the bimmer for sale yet?Quote:
