It was alot of fun. Thanks for letting me share the track with those beasts you drive. My helmet still has drool marks from the awesome sound and sight of a GT-R passing me while I'm WOT like nothing. I was in the MazdaSpeed3 and the only FWD car on the track, and I held my own being my first time and there were nothing but track monsters there. Awesome vehicles and event and I can't wait to see some vids. Thanks again for a great experience!
What about that big red Toyota? /nudge .
I was amazed at how well everyone did in the wet. For the number of first timers we had on the track Friday, there were very few spins, and no major spins. I will say this, mid day, the track felt like it was covered in snot, VERY hard to drive on.

Thanks! Yes, I was talking about the Celica Supras. I've owned three in the past.
Hey guys... Just registered to say thanks for allowing us CelicaSupra guys to come play too.
...rain aside, as a first-timer, that was by far the most fun I've ever had behind the wheel of a car. The track was great, the instructors could not have been more helpful, and being able to really RUN the car to its potential was something I've never been able to do in my prior autoX experiences. I learned a TON (thanks to Brian), know where my car requires attention (needs more brakes/cowbell), and am looking forward to any future TalladegaGP events the SpeedForSale guys put on.
Tom, did you happen to be driving a white mk4? ...if so, I've got some bad news, it's on tape. Click the thumbnail below for three laps in the rain, scooting past a FD, chasing down a Boxter, and watching an MK4 pull a children of the corn, all while doing my damnedest to keep the car going straight...
Yeah that was me... No worries though. Taking off into a cornfield in my car always beats my average day! Before that turn I was debating if I should let you 2 pass or not! oops
