I’ll be bringing a pump and I’m sure a few other people will have pumps.

I asked somedude the same question last night. I’m pretty sure they have air at the track. What kind of racetrack wouldn’t have an air compressor? heh…

I have a compressor.

I just talked to der Geist, and he said due to a family emergency it doesn’t look like he’s going to be able to make it.

You know that you can co-drive your car right? I’d better see you take a few laps.

I want to but I won’t get there until about 6-6:30 so I will miss all the rules, etc and I have never done a track day so I’d like to take rides in my car a few times and then maybe do the next track day.

At least get a couple of laps in Stairs. It is a lot more fun than autocross…

IF ANYONE IS STILL HOME RIGHT NOW AND READING THIS:

Could someone please bring some contact solution? My left contact is kind of fucked up and it might get worse up there. I’m stuck at work till 1:45 fixing this damn PC and I don’t have time to run home.

Thank you.

There’s these things called drugstores… and they sell contact solution… 😛

Besides, you can drive with one eye closed. Pirates do it all the time.

Got home around 9, took the front wheel off to see what the noise was, and as I suspected my stock pads are COMPLETELY gone. Rotors look fine though.

The GTO was a TON of fun out on the track. TON being the operative word there. The stock brakes were not up to the task of stopping 3750lbs from 100+ lap after lap. But, I figured that would be the case, and now I have a good baseline to see how brake upgrades do.

Thanks to the organizers. :tup:

I drove most of the sessions with 1 eye closed. Seriously. Then I tossed my contacts and drove alot faster.
