Brad, eh? You the guy with the white MR2?

This is an awesome event guys. We haven't held it for a few years, but I'm definitely looking forward to it again. Just had another surgery on my foot, so I'm hoping it's healed by then.

I'm very happy to see this event going again. Thanks man!

Last minute bump for monday's race. This is a really great course guys, one of the best tracks in existence! Lots of elevation changes and other aspects that make it one that you don't want to miss. It's the perfect opportunity to take your car to a real race track without having to worry about smacking it up. I hope to see some of you out there!

I shot incar video of my runs, but not sure when I'll have the time to edit them and post them.

My car got taken out by a drunk driver on the way home from that event: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...0#post10205440

Very sad
