So you are saying you are managing a craft Distillery in KC , but you list your location as Illinois --- have you been dipping into the stock a bit too much , as obviously the State you are in is ..............confusion!

Strange...... I'm not confused.

I have a home in Illinois, primary and a second home in KC where I manage the distillery. Wife is in Illinois with most of my money.
I guess that makes Illinois home still....at least until property values recover.

So , Illinois is home still, but KC has a still!!

Sounds like it is imperative you come to the Mustang Roundup in Hastings this September , as I know of at least 50 or so Connoisseurs of fine distilled spirits that would be there to judge , grade and partake of said. We could all give it our Boss or Shelby merit of excellence and I am sure that would increase sales! In fact we could help you with your newest triple distilled , custom brand ---Hotrodka, Vodka!!

All possible.

Since I am a bit closer now, this event is on my calendar. Wife is thrilled, (Sarcasm) but understanding.

Upgrades for rear brakes GT-500 style will happen next weekend. I want to do the big wheel/tire and brake upgrades before September but budget is not looking good. Daughter graduates from College in May. Should help.

And it was one year ago today that the GT350 Track Attack had its first class and TMO was there with 10 members. What a great time we had!

Is the system still set up that you have a year to take advantage of the Track Attack Program , or does one have 2 years ? I am hoping to get in towards the end of this year, but already have 2 prior commitments, so may only be able to do sometime in 2018.

Bill,
I had an ankle problem that prevented me from doing BTA within the allotted tyme frame but I communicated with the guys at MMSP and they let me come well after two years from date of purchase. Communication was the key. Give it a shot.

Thanks TS, that really is super helpful, as I need a two day slot so I can burn up some real race rubber and there are only so many slots. Being able to go in 2018 about the same time would work better and if I do have the 2 year time frame then no worries at all.
 
I just got back from the GT350 track attack yesterday. It was a blast! Great program they have; excellent course/instruction along with a very nice facility. This was my first track experience in a car as all my experience so far has been in karting. Those of you who haven't taken advantage of the program I highly recommend signing up.

Fondly remembering my track day from last year, I was watching the IMSA race from COTA last night and saw our instructor, Gunner Jeanette was running the #50 GTD Benz. How cool is that?
