Not sure. Best I can gather, long. The organizer points to this for acclimation.

I pulled the trigger yesterday.

Email him your desired days. He prefers to sell the 3 day package, but is amenable to 1-2 day buy-ins. Give him a heads up on your track experience level so he can check if he has opening. It is either intermediate or advanced. There seems to be a rather high bar to advanced. He thought I was best in intermediate for no other reason than I have never driven COTA before.

Well Friday started out cold and wet but the last session was nearly fully dry and really fun! Not sure who else from this forum was there, but we counted 7 GT350/350Rs on track.

What an amazing track and machine!

I was there. Didn't even have 2 sessions in and the oil pump failed. Towed to dealership...Otherwise, sick track. Great folks. GT350 guys were very helpful.

Holy cow! How did it happen?

We were in the Lightning blue with white stripes GT350. Only one there of that color.

It was yesterday. Wet conditions, second session out. Wasn't even going at 50%. Another GT350 guy said the exact same thing happened to him. Oil pressure went zero, pulled off track so I wouldn't leave 10 quarts for all to enjoy.

That sucks, sorry to hear it. Did the oil actually start to leak out or was it all internal? Can you give some specifics such as mileage on your car and is it primarily track or street driven? I'm still concerned about the reliability of the engine and these issues aren't helping. Hopefully the dealer gets you fixed up quickly.
