Video from Sunday. Kind of boring as I'm by myself a lot. Good view of the track, though the field of view makes it seem wider than it is and I found no video does the elevation changes justice.

I saw you coming for me at the end of this session, Ken. I got saved by the checkered.

There were so many offs this weekend <cough> that I think from the air it would have appeared that a drunk stole a lawn mower and went for a joy ride through all the dandelions.

It's a fun track. Lots of elevation change, a few hold your breath spots, and improvements to times as you get used to the rhythm of the track. I'll be back next year.

Oh, so *you* want the new handle.

I had a blast! Lots to work on and ready to go back for more. Will try to drum up new recruits.

Maybe we could get rid of the apex cones next year? Or is that some sort of track policy?

You are welcome to it. I don't have pictures of them in the radiator for an avatar.

I agree on any video not capturing the vertical character of the track.

Good times - Saturday afternoon and Sunday... I really enjoyed mixing it up with everyone.

Bill is absolutely right, we will talk to them and have the flaggers watch and any repeat they will be black flagged and stewards will talk to them for a good 10 minutes of hot session time or even send them in. Always told fast on the straight is a by product of fast through the corners, otherwise go to a drag strip!

Will talk to track management about that, we had so few instructors who knew the track and lots of zero zeros that we did not ask them to remove, sounds like next year if we can make it work we will dump the cones. (Not sure what the autocrossers will do though!)

Glad everyone had a good time. Dandelion, eh?
