    I wonder how steep the hill at the end of the front straight "feels" in the car?

    Will an MR2 even make it up the hill with a running start?

    it's got torque (that's about all it has)

    I'd be worried about those pesky Spec Miatas and cake-eater 944s first...

    Who all is going?

    With the GA tickets I plan to roam around and check out different vantage points through the weekend...not expecting the GA areas to have superb views but you never know.
    Should be a great weekend regardless. Anyone want to plan something specific for Fri/Sat night?

    Also, saw on a forum that SCCA already has a club weekend date for CotA.

    Got V8 Supercar tickets, I think I am more excited for that one at this point I must admit...

    I sure hope I can make the V8 supercar race.

    Anyone see the Surfer's Paradise race shown this last weekend? Standing Start by mostly Indy car drivers that were co-drivers for the weekend..... I won't spoil it if you haven't watched it yet....but is a must watch.

    They are rumoring Feb/March timeframe...Dave B. anything from NASA? I would re-join SCCA to drive that track even in a class of 1!

    licensing with SCCA is going to be a little sticky with that - I've looked into it. Basically NASA license converts to novice regional license, need 4 regionals to convert up to a national license and THEN you could run the March COTA race with them. $$$ by the time you get through all that, so I'm reconsidering...
