    There was no way to pull off this size event without the help of some key people in our group. Special thanks to Sean Riordan, Dave Lempert, Chris Gregor, Juan Gomez, Lisa Renauld, and Tuaty-Leira Motorsports.

    We met a lot of the new members there ? Jim, Manny, Jose, Mitch, Robert, Jeff, Bruce, Roy, Diego, Alex, Lawrence, Dan and AJ.

    We raffled off the 2-day NASA track event during lunch and our member Jose Touzet with a black G37 won. That guy was so excited!

    Just want to add, there IS a two day rate for HPDE1, the price for BOTH days in HPDE 1 is $499, a savings of $100. At least, that is what the NASA website just charged me plus a year's membership fees.

    Call Travelodge in Florida City, just a few miles from the track, 305-248-9777. Ask for coupon rate of 56 dollars a night . They will give it to you. I have stayed here before. Just fine, plus a free breakfast!

    Looking forward to the weekend, Saturday I will be coaching Carlos in his newly tuned M3 so watch out! Since I will be there already and I have been told that my PRO coaching is a bit steep for HPDE guys I have decided to throw myself at the wolves so to speak and allow any Trackweekend member to name their own price for a full day of coaching. Remember, 15 years of SCCA, ERME, FARA, GRAND AM, KONI CHALLENGE experience. You name a fair price and I will do the coaching, Lets hear it. Sunday Only.
