These were from the Oct 31st March of Dimes /SCCA charity event at Road America.

Todd (ZDot), Josh (turtle) & myself were some of the instructors there. Bart & a few others from BCM-land were also present helping out & participating:headbang

We had about 150 cars split into 4 groups and the bottom 3 classes had instructors with them.

Mr Peter Cunningham from Realtime racing was our lead instructor! He was out doing runs with passengers in his 'wifes' Evo :stare

My 3 students were owners of a Porsche Carrera S, C5 Vette and no BS.... Audi R8!! Showed them them the driving line: braking, turn in, apex, track-out & other techniques

Enjoi the pics! :headbang

Looks like a blast! I wish I could have gone. Mike's (with the STI Limited) Fiancee texted me that she got a ride in pete's evo.

I've known Mike and Sam for a long long time. His STi is one quick car, and will be even more ridiculous next year :devil

Looks like a blast wish I would of went. I was at race with the blue tacoma at a rallyx in chilton. I love that truck it is sexy but not as sexy as those porsches.
So it was well worth the price of admission?

luckily my bank paid for me to go. But either way it would have been well worth it.

Id say yeah, the price to drive was on par with other similar events although guest admission was a bit high. This event was all for charity and they exceeded thier goal.


Dan, pics of your Lotus just don't do it justice!! That thing looks so badass & glad to hear your now one of 'us'! :headbang

Bill did very well and I'll be keeping in contact with him regarding other events next year.

Next year maybe I'll get my registration in on time:D There's something about getting the wave by from big dollar cars that puts a smile on my face.

I did run at the satcar event saturday, I think there was a total of 6 cars running in my group. Only got one session in unfortunately due to a knock in the motor.:mad: I'm getting really good at removing/installing v8's into rx7's, a lot better than I want to be!

John, rumor has it there may be an fbody event in april, any truth to that??
