I'm going. I'll be in Phase 1 on Saturday.

I got snowed out of the Boston school last weekend, but had booked the Philly school as a backup. Glad I did!

I'm also running a tahitian green '91 CRX Si, but on Azenis....

That's funny.

I was going to run my Azenis but decided to run the car in the same conditions as on race day.

See ya there.

Yeah aj, me too....

Due to "facilties" limitations I can only have 1 set of tires, so the Azenis are the best of the bunch that I can run on the street.

I'm also very new at this, so I figure I'll wait to switch to race rubber when I'm consistently running within 2 or 3 seconds of the fast guys!

You know I'm in. I'm doing Phase 1 and 2. I'm planning on bringing the Prelude. Do you think everyone will tool on me if I tape it all up with painters tape to avoid cone marks on my precious paint? I expect to nail a LOT of cones...

joe, you got your car back? how does it look? any pics for us?

andrew, you might get tooled on with the tape. i went to a porsche driving school a couple weekends ago and saw no one protecting their 100K rides (but then again, they are not college students). it sucks that your car is white, the cone marks may show.

i might be home for the weekend and might come down to watch you guys.

Rub it in AJ.. for the 3rd year in a row, I'll be off the continent.. I think it's a conspiracy on my wife's part (she always plans these trips, but before the Philly date is announced)

Good luck, and have fun!

hmm no pics just yet, I've been living in the dyno lab cursing at the engine for that 'other' car. The Integra looks pretty much the same as before except cleaner and with Falkens

Had a great time today, picked up some needed couple of tenths.

Great meeting some of you guys.

I'll be attending Phase 2 tomorrow.

take care,

Had fun, although for some reason the instruction on looking ahead on the course messed me up for a few runs. But I nailed a cone head on and it popped back up in the box

I highly recommend it, the instructors are excellent, even with hacks like me

P.S. We discovered the fuel pressure regulator on the FSAE engine was scarred by debris, and was missing one of the two springs (no, I have no idea how).

Just completed Phase 2 today.

I believe that I picked up more out of this than Phase 1.

It feels like looking ahead has become second nature.

We'll see if that's true at the next event.

And you missed a great course today AJ. Lee Piccone designed the course and was it fast and flowy

I think I took 1st in PAX today just barely.

Phase 2 was indeed good. I have some pictures of AJ that I'll put up tomorrow night. Watching him drive is fun.

Sweet.

Mike-The course you experienced today is just a little taste of what you will experience at the DC Tour.

Ray-thanks for the pics dude. You really improved greatly throughout the day. Now we just have to see if we can use these MaD SkillZ at the next event.

take care,

aj

This is an online album with some pictures from the event. Not a lot of great ones though as I couldn't find the time to really concentrate on taking pictures. I also had to be working the course and didn't want to get hit with a flying cone (right aj? )
