Alright guys, this time I got it right. I'm all booked for Oct 14,15 which is a Thursday, Friday, not the Monday Tuesday that my stupid brain booked by mistake.
Fortunately they didn't charge me to reschedule.
Anyone else going these dates? $205 round trip from Chicago... what a deal!
I am stoked!!

Nah, we're tough here :p

I'm just trying to work out the logistics between work and personal commitments to see if I can make that date work. 🤞

Very nice!
I’m going to try RA next year.
I did a track night down in Joliet Autobon earlier this year… the Mach is very impressive!!

I did mine this past week...incredible experience and so well run. Truly a once in a lifetime experience for me-included a pic of me driving my #23 car on the steep turn...so awesome! All of the lessons were great, but the 3x 20 min sessions on track took the cake as well as the instructor lap at the end. One other auto user in my group...we might have been the first using those. A lot of really good feedback on the Mach 1 too. One instructor had never driven one before as he usually just does the 350 and normal FPRS events, and he was very impressed by it. My demonstrating instructor (former stunt car driver for movies as well as significant race experience) said during our discussion he thinks it handles better than the GT350 as well as noting the better low down torque. I hope in the future they will do the demo laps in autos for those students that use them to show what the auto can do in a pros hands. Right now due to the limited auto cars available the demonstrations are all in manual cars. The in-car video thing is worth every penny. It was raining off and on so we were on the 4s tires...not sure if they usually run Cup 2s. That also kept us out of track mode...we ran in sport + the whole time. I am jealous of you guys about to go do it in Oct...would love to go again.

Sounds like a great time man! I’ve got an auto too but I’m doing the track attack in a manual.
I don’t understand why you’d be in sport+ instead of track mode, track mode is way smoother shifting.

I guess track turns off more nannies so they were concerned about that with the wet conditions so they asked everyone to stay in sport +.

Hope everyone going on the 14th & 15th has a great time!
