Yep - I'm in! I'm really fired up to take my CS to the track for the first time. I've owned it for almost 7 months now, that's just too long without track time!

I've been to VIR a few times in the past with my previous ride, an A4. I think the difference is going to be interesting...

Great, we'll have 5-6 Caymans at least this time I think. I haven't been to any track for the past 16 months, and I cannot wait.

I am leaving on the afternoon of 4th around 1 pm from Germantown MD, and staying at SleepInn; would any of you like to caravan down?

It will be fun to see what other Caymans can do. I hope I'm not too much of a back marker!

I'm coming from Raleigh, so no caravan for me, but I'll be at the SleepInn too.

Also, does anyone know if a schedule has been posted for the event? Is this a true 3-day event, or is Friday for Instructors only? I haven't found many details on the webite (though I may just be looking in the wrong place...)

I don't think they have posted details just yet. It is full 3 days, so be ready to be on the track Friday morning; tech generally is on Thursday afternoon until about 7 or 8 pm, late tech is on Friday morning, 7 am and drivers meeting generally is at 8 am, with first track outing around 8:30-8:45 am on Friday. Instructors run in either white or red group in their own session all three days, just like us

I will be going down around that time and will be at the SleepInn in Danville too. Are you towing with a trailer? I posted on DORKIFUS to see if anyone can haul my track tires so I don't have to rent a trailer.

Sounds great, we can head out together than. I don't trailer, just gonna put the R888s on and drive. I am sure someone at Dorkiphus will offer help to get your tires down, I'll also ask couple of people that I know. Also, you may want to ask around personally during the tech session a week prior to the event.

Since you are at Frederick, we can meet up at Milestone in Germantown at 1 pm, then pick up Dan from around Tyson's at 1:30 pm and drive down.

How does that sound?

Do you have a truck to pull a trailer with your car on it? I have a friend with an a very nice aliminum trailer that he may be willing to rent to you; it has its own adjustable brakes.

Sounds good. Where/what is Milestone? I guess I could just drive down with my R888's too but if something mechanical goes wrong it is a long way from home. I do have a truck.

Milestone is a shoping center at the intersection of Father Hurley Blvd. and 355, exit 16A from I270; should be on your way. Or, we can meet at a location of your choice.

I am going to take the risk by putting the R888s on the car, but I cannot say you should do the same; neither of us will have any fall back plan However, I really don't want to go through the hassel of carrying r-comps besides my street tires. On the other hand, if you want me to ask my friend for renting his trailer (it has the tire rack on it), I certainly can do that; then I'll put my r-comps on it too It is too much trouble though I think.

Any way, I just learned that Dan won't be able to caravan with us, his plane is landing on the 4th at 3 pm, so he'll join us late night or the next morning.

FT, I will be there coming up from FL this time.

Got an email today that they are looking for more instructors in case anyone is on the fence about going to instruct for this event.

BTW, the instructor run groups are Black and Red. White is a solo non-instructor group normally. No schedule available yet as far as I know.

Look forward to seeing you again and hearing how you like the R888's

Maury
