New Hamp Int'l speedway anyone?

not the oval, exactly, but the road course built into part of it.

i believe one of the guys who runs there as an instructor has a Z06 (C6), too.

Dude, that's an awesome combination. Kind of like wearing a Dixie Chicks shirt at a Toby Keith concert.

The SCDA folks run good events, I'd highly recommend them.

I did one of their track days back in '02.

Split a Cayman, 350Z, or the Mini Cooper two ways between Lemming and FC.
Not a bad idea. We're going to Paris for a week in mid/late april though. It will be a hard sell to Mrs FC.

Funny, he used to tell me his 33Ci did fine in the winter on the OEM Conticraps. I guess he finally wised up.

I haven't seen those guys since I last did Autox, over 2 years ago.
