LRP announcement

No. You get 20 days per year for your $110K and $550 per month.

It turns out to be $440K over 50 years for 1000 track days. $440 per day if you average it out. Plenty of other 'perks'. The club is thinking about buying cars for the membership to drive. They are also going to create a 'track within the track' (very hard to explain) with modified corners (less dangerous) without changing the original config. Again, very hard to explain but they will slow down some of the scary spots and utilize some popular spots to lessen the danger of personal cars.

They are VERY customer oriented at this point. VERY.

Well, since Andy let the cat out of the bag first (I wouldn't have wanted to :P)...
Here's my "artist's interpretation" of the reconfiguration, going by what Skip had said at a VSCCA Banquet a little over two months ago; though it sounded purely speculative at that point:

I am sorry but that is just stupid. Why don't we make a fake track so you can say that you drove LRP?
 
Just aimed at their street cars to bring the 'danger' level down. Many have agreed that to be fast at LRP you need to have a screw or two loose...

I believe the new config will be for members only - and they of course will have the option of running days on the original configuration.
 
Does the "new" line in the downhill require 2 wheels in the stream?

Here's a new novel approach to making LRP more "drivable" Get rid of the bumps and repave......

Like I said, supposedly before the AMLS this July.

Yeah, '06 wasn't a fun season but it wasn't a passing attempt that caused me to wreck the car. It's still interesting to learn a bit more about the perspective and what influences shape things.

One might think, but actually where I reprofiled the corner (really just reduced the radius), its outside edge is just underneath the edge of where the Station 11 shade structure now is-leaving plenty of room for the paved runoff. (Where they'd put the flaggers I have no idea-maybe back inside the turn)
I'll give you another look, with satellite imagery background:
(Yes, I have too much time to play with Google Earth and Excel)

It's all in the plan. I think ALMS really put some pressure on...it's gonna be like glass for you punks.
 
Fixed.

Yeah, me too.

Or be Richie Hunter or Anthony Serra in an Integra, or Blaney / Lorenzo Serra in a CRX...

It's always about the car..... HA!



Hey Lawton,

Did you even GO to the runoffs this year????? Be careful about fixing too many posts!!!! :018:

Check my video - he was there! About 15 laps in you get a nice view of him!!!!

Ahhhh, snow in the Northeast means we get punchy!!!!! :)
 
It has nothing to do with the car. Ha! :D As we know, there are numerous racers out there who would do extremely well put in the right car. There are also plenty of people who have the right car that still can't take advantage of it.

Whaa....??? How long has THAT been? ::confused:: I guess using that logic, the first-gen RX-7 is still competitive in ITS... :wacko: Hell, dude, how long has it been since those guys (sans Hunter) have even been to LRP? Hell, now that I think about it, how long has it been since you've lost at LRP (in the dry...?) Let's tally the score over the last two years... :023:

But, at least you picked up on the "screw loose" part... ;)

Just posting guys who have gone 1:02 FLAT or better. And Anthony's 1:01.6......so tally how many times I have raced against any of THOSE guys other than Hunter (who can run on my bumper until he spins :) )....zero. :eclipsee_steering:
 
The number of ITS guys under 1:02 is a handful or so. [/b]

Easily about 8 or so. The top five at the Runoffs this year were all in the 1:01's. Add in me, Kip, Reilly and you have plenty. Only 2 guys in the 1:00 range I beleive. THAT is crazy.
