We had a good weekend at the LeMons event Jake. Any day you get to see a Mustang get crushed by a huge excavator is a good one. :P

BTW, anyone see a video of 'The People's Curse' posted yet?

Jason it was an excellent weekend (with the exception of a couple folks who had car damage). The weather was perfect and the track was great. And of course the folks behind the scenes for the track events kept it running like clock work. Could not have asked for a more fun weekend.

It was a wonderful weekend at VIR. Everything was perfect including the weather. Thanks to all behind the scenes and the instructors. You guys are doing a great job! I know I am getting faster - hey my little miata was playing with a couple of Zs, a BMW, and a couple other cars. So much fun!

Many thanks also to the Instructors, Event Staff, VIR and the other drivers for a great weekend. Even the weather was good to us.

Managed to fry my Miata's catalytic converter during the last session and the car was painfull to drive the 4 hours home, but it made it.

Special thaks to Frank C for sitting through my learning process again...I think it is starting to pay off... :twisted:
