Both dates look doable to me, although I'll be coming back from my niece's graduation in CO prior to the May date. Now I just need to actually make it to a track day!

If you're only going to do one track day ever LS is the place to go.

Even better when we get a good group of BMO together. Last year I think it was 21ish. Maybe some snow country folks this time?....

Nice find. And I've been on 3 of them. Should be 6 right now (Sonoma, Sebring and Daytona are the ones I've had chances). If I go back east next year, VIR is at the top of the list.

I'm in for May.

Will the stock exhaust make the sound at 90db limit without lifting?

Yes but you'll want the stock discs in your side pipes. I've run my GT500 mufflers with 1/2" discs and passed at 90 db.

I was at Laguna early December and ran with the side pipes open and didn't have an issue surprisingly, turning 1:48's as it was a bit wet on some corners and had to keep off the paint entirely most of the day due to on and off rain. I would bring them open and if you get meatball'd just through in the restrictors between runs - should be plenty of jacks available if you don't bring one!

I'm sorry for you...I was sad to miss the last gathering at Thunderhill.

Anyone planning to run in the point-by group? I'm inclined to run there unless I'll be the only one!
