Interested in hearing about how the event turns out. Seem to be hearing a lot of good things about the organization.

Will do. I've been attending most of their events the past couple years as a vendor, so this will be the first time driving with them. They're rolling out a new instructor program for beginners which I'll also be participating in, so I'm excited to see what all is in store for this season.

Sorry guys, been a long month of driving all over for different events. Mid Ohio was awesome. Super fun, and fast track. Unfortunately we spent most of the weekend in the rain.
Their new out of car instruction went well. There's definitely some adjustments, and things to work on but they have a great set of guys out there instructing. Tom O'Gorman was their lead instructor, and for those of you who don't know. Tom competes in the Pirelli World Challenge in a 17' Civic SI.

So Mid Ohio was incredibly slick in the rain, didn't leave you with much to take away as a driver. All of the turns were taken on the outside, because of the incredibly slick repaved patches on the inside of the turns. Even with a pace car on all seasons, we still had a couple offs during the wet sessions.

Here's the last dry session I had. There's a ton still that I need to learn, but I had a great time. If I marked the laps correctly, they were looking to be 2;00-2;02.
