Where ever the Army says :)
So last weekend I was able to get my car out to Inde Motorsports with NASA. Let me tell you...it was an awesome experience for the entire weekend!! If you thought you "knew" how to drive...you have lots to learn. From the classroom instruction to having one on one instruction on the track with a instructor in the car with you, there was no way to beat it! My instructor, Dave, in the classroom had tons of knowledge and made the instruction fun with Top Gear videos, track session videos, as well as open discussions. Now once I got to get on the track with my instructor, Jim "Coz" Cozzolino!, I was blown away by how much "quicker, not faster" on the track I was just by taking correct lines and being smooth all the way around the track. If anyone has the time and money, I would highly suggest trying out at least one day of NASA HPDE 1 at a local track. The whole weekend event was great as we had lunch at the track each day and had a huge BBQ sat night where we got to meet tons of great racers beginners to pros. Everyone was welcoming as a big family and if you asked them...they gave you vast amounts of knowledge. Now i just gotta fix my car back up since she sprung a leak...lol. :biggrin:

It was nice meeting you (Ravi, the Tech guy with the colorful NSX).

Glad you had a good time!
 
Nice meeting you.
 
Can't wait till I have my N/A build done next year to give you FI guys a challenge haha :)

Ended up with a 2:05 best lap time. Not bad considering the issues we had during the day (coorded front left tire, had to switch to a scrub... cracked both front rotors in 2 sessions, had to run the spares).
