Very cool. I'm hoping to also do a couple of events from the boys at http://wedrivefast.com. They bounce from St. Pete, Lakeland, and Brooksville.

I just registered Deb and I for the autocross class on the 10th and the Autocross race on the 17th. I am hoping to get some track time in this year.

I enjoy the road course much more then the quarter. Bing bang boom the drag race is over and then you go and sit and wait. But the RC is a blast. Did Gainesville several times last year and had a great deal of fun.
Once the car is back together I will be out there running.
Peace

that wont happen. usually they let you walk the track, then go through it once or twice in your car at a slow pace to get to know it. Most ease their way into it. When I was at Gainesville, I slowly got better with my times and hit 120 mph on the back stretch, that was damn fun.
My first pass was like 1 minute 10 seconds and by the time I was done several hours later I go it down to 51 seconds flat.
Just go for it.
Good luck
