We are going to be at BW 4/15-16 With CDS. That is a track group started by Hank Watts... Run thru Monterey Bay and Loma Prieta Regions of PCA.

Good DEs with lots of track time....especially for the instructors. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Gary Dorighi is now the GGR TT chief instructor....If you have a GGR TT license you should be able to sign up for one of our events. GGR tt at Buttonwillow is June 24,25 this season... that should be nice and cool.
I am not too worried about the heat now that I have my 25 row oil cooler and fan installed and functioning.

Bill,

If the forecast holds then I will be leaving tomorrow early afternoon, flat towing. If weather turns for Sat forecast then I am leaving early AM Sat in the Boxster for a bonzai run....no driving just instructing if that happens.

I guess Grant couldn't find a way to get his car to BW...Grant, have you decided on a tow vehicle yet?

'Brad If you are interested then you need to contact Hank Watts. Or the CDS registrar.
Not sure if you can take Grants entry or not but Hank should be able to set you with the correct info.

Can you provide me/us with a hyperlink to the site?

I think it is something like Coastal Driving School or something.. let me look.

I had planned to run a Qualcomm AutoX in the Boxturd, but.... I might be able to pull off a Buttonwillow day.

Thanks Dan.

I think I could only swing one day right now (shop pay for it) It appears registration is still open.

I'll see what I can do. The car is ready to go. Just need to slap on the Hoosiers and put it on a trailer.

Oh.. the oil cooler looks nice also. Did you increase the fuel pressure when you decided to push the fuel 13ft. to the regulator?

Nope. I just wasnt willing to tow with A4. Tow hitch for A4 screws up the car drilling etc and the way it fastens to the car is questionable.

Grant,

I'll try to get a hold of Hank tomorrow and see if we can do it. If you have PayPal I can send you the money if he authorizes it.
