looking at their site, i would have to run in the unlimited class because the 360 is a supercar/high horsepower car.

Keith FYI there is a picture of you and said Ferrari in the latest SCCA mag. You took a corner worker for a ride it seems.

i remember seeing a letter to the editor in our local WDC mag, do not recall seeing it in the national pub.

we had a couple gals from another region come out to earlier regional race and they helped out on the grid. between sessions on saturday it came up i had a ferrari, one of them started in on how she had never ridden in one, was a dream, etc, so i told her i would bring it in sunday. could not get on the track with regular car (unlike NASA with hpde) so at lunch took her out on the street down to where road makes the turn back to rte 7. only got up to a little over a hundred, so not as much fun as being on track at speed, but she enjoyed it.

gotta be nice to the little people, you know, like letting another instructor at the ferrari national event at SP couple months back, who was on the shenandoah, where there were no ferraris only the "other" cars, take the 360 out for a session with the group 1 folks, since he complained about helping out and not even getting a chance to show the new people with them expensive cars the line.

I'm probably going to sign up for the HPDE on Saturday. Will I be able to run with the stock roll hoops?

Stock roll hoops are fine for this track.

KAMcDonald: We have one 360 already coming out, might be worth it for you to give it a try.

My first time out on that track/config I ran best times in the high 1:45 low 1:46 range, w/o the wing and a misaligned suspension. I imagine I could pick up a few more seconds driving harder.

So who all is going? I have been on the main track with my prelude but, would will be my first time on the Shenedoah circuit and being on the track with the S, so I'm kinda nervous about it.

We'll have instructors out there.
I'll give you a ride for a few lap too. I've been driving an S2 on the track for a long time now. The S is a completely different animal then your prelude on a track.

It can be tricky to get the S not to spin out, but it's so much fun on a race track once you get the hang of that car.
