I will be there on the 23rd running the Roval with my Cobra. Are you guys doing the Roval or Autocross?

The $80 for a full day of Autocross sounds tempting. $30 for three quick runs at Solo2 events goes too quick.

We'll be running the roval.
Instruction is included in your first day with Speedventures. Novices are in their own group, and have debriefs after every session, as well as follow-the leader and/or instructor ride-alongs. |

BTW John- It sounds fun and as we had talked about, I would like to go but I think I am working the L.A. Auto Show that day/weekend. Are you going to the auto show?

Yup. You will have plenty of time to debrief with your instructor in the car when you are on the oval

I might. I will check the schedule and will let you know. They are still making on-going revisions, so it might be a few days before i know for sure...

Red gutted hatch with steelies and a front grille? How did you do in the autocross? |

I didn't autocross...I ran on the Roval....and it was Awesome! This car is suprisingly quick and pretty neutral handleing. I'll post a full debrief later today.

I bet that Yaris kept up with everything in the turns -- that's been my experience. And then pointing everyone by on the straights..
