I'm sad it's over, but ready for the break (and so is my bank account)! It was a great season, a lot of progress was made! I qualified for advance group and time trials and Duane would have if he asked for his check ride!! So now he has to do it during the season opener in 2018. Lisa showed up with her Elise this past weekend for her first ever track day. We are hoping she is hooked! I hope to see more out there next year.
If you have any doubts about the process of signing up, inspecting your car, or any other questions please let us know. We can walk you through everything. Each event we are learning to be more prepared and have a nice "paddock", between our 2 cars, Duane and I are able to bring;
Tents X 2 Sleeping bags X 2 Butane grill EZ up canopy Cooler multiple pallets of water/gatoraide overnight bag X 2 large tool bag Jack helper torque wrench 200' of extension cord Camera bags X 2 (now only if I could find time to use them) Camera rig Lap tops X 2
I'm sure I'm forgetting things already, but next season we already have plans for a coffee maker!
Time to start planning those winter mods and give the car a full inspection, though not time for full hibernation yet!

The car is finally legal and running well, so I am hoping to really get some serious track time next year. Promise!

It's a week later and I'm already having track withdrawals and saddened that it's over for a few months. I really should have gotten that check ride to get into advanced, with that said I plan on taking care of that at the second event of the season.
More stuff that we brought were: Chairs(x2) tarps Mosquito netting(Haven't needed it yet) Helmets(x2)
Can you imagine what other luxuries we could have if more Lotus cars were there!?!
For additions to our paddock next year, I suggest we add in a couple blocks of wood hahaha. Changing my brake pads at the track without them, while possible... was a pain. Oh and we need to start logbooks too.
