Great day at the track with the Mercedes club!

Lots of track time, great weather and everybody drove their cars home in one piece.

 

Another awesome day at the track in the books today. Thanks Pete for letting us in on this one, Jefferson is the perfect season opening track for me. I gotten very consistent on my track in, apex, and track out. Things I need to work on is the braking points and work on my keystone moves (smoothness on steering ).

Thanks, George for saving my day by giving me your tech sheet and buying me water. Matt, thanks for hooking me up on lunch, I owe you 6 bucks plus interest . Nice seeing you out there, Jason. Thanks for bringing the extra braek pads just in case. You have a lovely family by the way.

Man, I'm still wired up! Looking to sign up for the next track now.

 

You guys did a good a job hosting this one, Pete. I enjoyed the offline drills. We work on T1-T3 offline then got back online tracking out on T4. Offline T5 entry and track out same way which help me take a late point by, and offline T6 entry then smooth out on T7 for the front straight away.

 

What's the policy for tech....is it only on site or do we need pre-tech like NASA, etc. When is the next event for Mercedes at Summit?

 

Some pics about Beepbeep.

Just arrived (late)


Finally installed the new wheels with Nitto in the afternoon.


Ready to go out.


Next to a pretty Miata


Now ready to go home.

 

Glad to hear it was a great day for everyone.

 

A great day at the track, last minute decision was worth it. Nice to see everyone.

 

Thanks Pete for the fun day. Good seeing all of you. The laid back approach and lots of track time is a great combo.

 

Glad that the weekend went well everyone!!

 

More exciting pictures of Ron and trackday:




Ron chasing me down




I liked this picture because you can see the difference in weight application of inside tires vs. outside



As always, can't wait to get out on track again.
