Greetings:
Just cam back from a couple fo long trips (Austria and Hawaii). No I did NOT wear that shirt there...
Drove a ML 320 Turbo-Diesel in the autobhan

and to Scott and Tom's delight a Mustang Convertible in Hawaii (I asked for a Ford Focus but got upgraded

)

Wonder if anyone knows what will be the track configurations for this event (always good for instrcutors and students).
I suspect chicane/chicane but always nice to be sure.

Mahalo! (means thank you in Hawaiian ... Raj get you head out of the gutter please

)

According to the first post of this very tread - chicane/chicane.

Mahalo in the language of my forefathers means "She That Goes To Wigwam Of Brave With Much Wampum".

You are right Mark. Coconut Shaved Ice for you from Matsumoto's Grocery Store (gotta try it! http://www.matsumotoshaveice.com/ ) since you are not prone to a Mai-Tai.

Imagine if we were having this event in Hawaii:
ka'a = automobile (hey! sounds just like in MA: "pahk the cah"

)

Actually, ka'a has two syllables.

As an Indian friend (from India) once told me, "Dot, not feather".

Excuse me, but I would like to get this thread back on track

.

The weather for NHIS 4:
Saturday (24 hours): Showers ending by midday. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the low 50s.
Sunday (24 hours): Times of sun and clouds. Highs in the upper 60s and lows in the low 50s.

Once again, I have arranged for dry weather for the time trials!

Thanks, Sam. Not much tread left on the RA1s I've been using since last year.

Come on... who's afraid of a little rain to mix things up?

I remember I once held the track record (chicane/chicane) after the resurfaced the track and it rain very hard (was it 2001?). My times were better than others in higher class. Bruce - if I remember correctly - still got FTD even after sipinning twice

If you were driving the Alfa, I could understand that. Extreme body roll is a good thing in the wet

Finesse, finesse, finesse as my (RIP) friend Ayrton Senna used to tell me.
