Anyone going to Horse Thief Mile this weekend?

I'm going Sunday with Speed Ventures. Will I be the only RX7 there?

Any tips on the track from anyone who has driven there?

That's a fun little track, I ran there last year with my 1st gen MR-2. I was intimidated at first by hearing the stories others had told me about going off the track, but after a few laps I realized it wasn't bad at all.

Never been there, but a neighbor of mine did pretty well there during last night's episode of "Setup" on Speed Channel!

Have fun, looks like a nice little track.

Mike Skeen. His parents live a few doors down from me.

My claim to fame - I live near a guy who can actually drive well.

I think Alberto, a recent San Diego transplant from New York City may be there with his FD.

It's a decent little track. I'd much rather do Streets than HTM, but it's fun to try different tracks, so I had to try it at least once. It's really really tight, though. My FC has a manual rack and at the end of the day, my arms were killing me! Have fun!
