Here is a drawing of the course for this weekends event.
It's going to be pretty fast! (sorry Jeff, LOL, well not really the big cars need some lovin after a couple of months at RIR! Ohhh I have a Vette! LOL, lets go fast!) Anyhow I may change up the finish a little (to slow it down).

We probably only need about 35 cones, makes it easier to set up and take down  John

It appears that the start is closest to the paddock (right side of this drawing), with a "blazing fast finish" on the left, is that correct?

Funny, I read it the other way around - with the fast finish being that straight coming out of the carousel on the far right. But you took the Evo course, so you're used to running courses backwards, right?

In fact I think I like it better with the corkscrew at the end. Forces you to keep your brain active right up to the finish, instead of going on autopilot through the last few gates.

'xCrimsonRx' - you looked like you had a bit more of a blast than the rest of us. So how *was* the grass?

Fun course my experiment with the stock rims kinda backfired on me though I think the stock c5z06 rims can't effectively give proper turn in with 295 r17 a6 tires need more rim whos got the scoop on some rear c5z06 speedlines or alcoa's ?

More kudos for a great course! Great to have a very dynamic/exciting course with different types of sections, varying radius, and braking skills tests! More please! Of course, it helps to have a big palette to work with. Hope MEP is on the schedule next year.

I don't think so. Our fearless leaders (and current keepers of the laptop) probably needed a day to recover from partying all weekend. We'll give 'em until tomorrow. Then we'll start with the nagging.

Sorry to all that had to clean up. The heat got to me and had to leave after my last run. I did have a good time. Recovered enough to go to work.
