My reply from the Test session topic...

Just got back. Basically 5 hours of open track. Everybody was well behaved...good passing and etiquette from just about all drivers, and home before 3pm! A fair amount of familiar faces.

I did go to their website,Sam. I wanted to know how many they have in a normal year. :roll:
Third thursday of every month would be nice.(thanks Mick)

I noticed that COM link as well. Cool!

Ooooohhh, I thought you wanted to know what was left for this year. As you can see today was the last day, until third Thursday in April 2009.
I ran about 40 laps today and called Scott Rosnick as soon as I got home to schedule big time alignment day! FWD's aren't supposed to lead with the axx end!
But it was interesting, and I managed to cord the right front coming up the hill out of T3. Tose V710s are quick when new, though!

Green V710s on the back of my Focus never stick.Once I rotate the fronts to the rear,things get much better. :wink: You do have to be carefull about spinning them out of corners or you will mess them up. Even with the Torsen,I have to be kind to them if they unweight or you will overheat them.Run within their temp limits,they are a wonderful tire. Glad to hear the GG is back in action!

I only have this problem at NHMS, unfortunately that's our home track.

+1 here also. I did the same with an RA1. WE just have to stop mashing that pedal, he he, what fun would that be?
