BTW, we now have a total of 33 drivers signed up: 14 in A group (25 max allowed), 10 in B group (25 max), and 9 in C group (20 max). Keep an eye on that driver's list -- http://www.onemain.com/~bonster/driverlist.html Make sure you get your registration in soon so that you don't miss out on the fun!

Anyway, I'm still a bit slow yet, compared to my racing peers, but at least I'm not last place (phew!). But most of those guys have been racing almost as long as I've been alive, so I don't take it to heart much. I am only there to have total butt-puckering FUN. I wouldn't mind a podium finish one of these days, though. That never hurts.

That's a pretty good time in a Miata on R's.
I clicked off a 2:11 last time at thunderhill. 2:14 in traffic. I was still getting used to the EVO on track. Stock tires, stock suspension except for upgraded rear sway bar and alignment. Power mods where turboback and MBC.
How many cars to you allow in A group Bonni? I might be signing up. I have a GGLC thill day on July 27th so I am trying to decide if I want to do two open track events in July. :P

And hey, you're no slouch yourself, but from watching the races, I know your Evo can go much faster. We'll have to work on that, eh? But yes, R compounds would make a huge difference, along with suspension upgrades, bigger brakes . . . oops. Sorry, I am a bad influence.
I typically max group A and group B to 25 cars. My ceiling is 30, but I rarely will allow more than 25 for safety reasons. Keep an eye on the drivers list -- http://www.onemain.com/~bonster/driverlist.html so that you can make sure you get your reg in before it fills would be my suggestion. At this point, if we keep getting Subie sign ups (at least, in A group it's looking this way), I'm going to have to call it a Subaru Club day. You guys are as crazy as the Miata crowd about track time.
Oh, in regards to whether to do both events in July -- hell yeah! Why not?!? I go to as many as I possibly can . . . I can't make the GGLC day most likely -- my boss gives me a rash of crap as it is when I take off days for T.E.A.M. (but if I cry and whine and kick and scream he'll let me go (I'm not that bad, but I have thought about trying that technique) -- then I just gotta come up with money, lol).
Anyway, I hope to see you again. IIRC, you were at the Valentine's event, weren't you? Your username looks familiar . . .

And yes, A group has open passing all day unless folks start getting out of hand (making stupid passes, dive-bombing, etc), in which case it will be restricted to B group passing rules. We've not yet had to restrict A group since we decided to make it open passing, and I doubt we'll be doing it this time. Usually when folks realize they could have their fun taken away, they behave.
So are you signed up yet?
