I'm not sure I ever learned how to brake!!!???? And Ryan posted that I have a LEAD FOOT?? My driving (and lack of serious braking) inspired Brian to commit to getting a roll-bar and 5 point harness for the Cayman in July prior to my next trip to Summit. Precious cargo.

Thank you to Ryan, an awesome instructor, who made it fun learning the track. Great laughs with him throughout the 3 days and I posted some 2:22, 2:23 lap times on youtube - which I guess is a good # for my first time at the Glen - and for a GIRL DRIVER in Blue group. I LOVED the track and can't wait to go back.

Dave - Yeah...unfortunate about the timing of this "summer flu" that's going around. Audi Club runs a DE there in August. I may just have to sign up and redeem myself. I enjoyed the one day that I did drive so much, I'm willing to make the trip again so soon. The trip home wasn't too bad, as I was still feeling like ass. Luckily, I was able to sleep a good 4 hours of it.

I wish my excuse was a hangover or something, but I was laid up in the bed...until SUNDAY morning. I am feeling much better, and looking forward to the Summit July event.

Thanks for asking.

LOL. Nice times for blue/first time at WG. Get used to(start) threshold braking, get your lazy husband to put on the R1s, and you'll pick up a ton of time! Good droving, had fun sitting in the right seat. See you at Aug SP .

Glad your feeling better AROB! (and selfishly, glad the bug didn't jump to my side of the garage space)

Don't worry about it. Braking is for wimps.
