Hi everyone,

My name is Eric. I have a 2018 GT PP1 and I'm just getting started in the road course world. I did my first ever HPDE event with NASA in May of this year and became instantly hooked. I plan to work my way up the ladder with NASA and eventually get to time trial.

I also have a 2009 Honda CBR600RR for my fellow bike guys on here.

Good Morning, I frequently run with Speed Ventures @ the AutoClub Speedway and suspect you have already checked them out since they are right next door to Orange County.

Aaron runs a safe as well as a professional program and will not hesitate to Black Flag or dismiss drivers that are unwilling to comply with run group protocols. They also offer a sound building block approach to HPDE and offer instructors to help set a solid HPDE foundation.

Best wishes on reaching your personal goals.

Thanks for the info Dennis!
My first event was at Auto Club; very fun track. I have a few friends who vouch for Speed Ventures as well. I will be looking into their events for additional seat time.

Welcome. I tracked my 2007 600RR for a while before getting into karting. Loved that bike.

They are a ton of fun.

After a low side in the canyons, I had the fairings custom painted. I like solid colors on bikes as opposed to all the stripes.

Nice. Like the flag decal.

Nice. I like just about anything on two wheels but no road going motorcycles for me. I do have a couple of dirt bikes to go along with my MTB and roadie bicycles. I’ve been thinking about starting a two wheel thread. Maybe it’s time.

Welcome Eric. Seat time. Seat time. Seat time.

That orange is siiiiiiick. I had a Ranger FX4 in grabber orange and adored that truck, especially the color. Orange is a very polarizing color, some people love it and others hate it. Your car looks fantastic with it.

 

[TymeSlayer]

How long did it take you to tape up that front end?

Love the car BTW.

Thank you! I love it as well. There is a very slight metallic flake to it. Awesome color option Ford made available.

Took maybe a bit over an hour. It worked pretty well but I don't think I'll be doing that again.

Hi and welcome to TMO. Many of us are fans of Dean's and KohR Motorsports. I was unaware of the event so I went looking and found this on the KohR Facebook page:

"SAVE THE DATE! - The #59 Rehagen FR500C sister car has been restored to it's 2009 Championship Season livery and ready to be reunited with the #52 team car once again. The 1st Annual Kohr Rehagen Customer Celebration will be held the weekend of Dec. 6-8 @ Daytona Speedway to commemorate the 10 year anniversary of the Championship Season. More details and announcements coming soon...Dean Martin, Ken Wilden, Don LaBar and many other customer street, track and past/present race cars are invited for an amazing track weekend with special guests & surprises."

I would check with Dean on how to register for the event.
