WOW<br>
<br>
First, great job by Carl and Wendy. Thanks to the volunteers and helpers for making the event go so smoothly. <br>
<br>
What a track. For those who did not go, you missed a great event in a wonderful locale. The weather cooperated with only a little rain on Thursday evening.<br>
<br>
Some comments:<br>
Lot of new faces.<br>
BMW takes FTD !!!! Congrats Mark, great job.<br>
Subies politely gave Miatae point bys.<br>
From Southern NH, it is about a 6 hour drive and well worth it. <br>
Several drivers indicated they would like a three day event or two dates scheduled for this the track.<br>
Others commented they would give up Watkins Glen for an additional date at Tremblant.<br>
Great place to take wive or significant others. Local golf, lake, mountain, biking and scenery.<br>
Local micro-brewery.<br>
<br>
Looking forward to next year.<br>

Tremblant
Ditto to all of that, it really is a great family destination. Even though my car broke the family had a blast.<br>
<br>
Someone left a red M&R neck ring on my truck, well used but in good shape. Drop me a note with an address and I'll send it to you or bring it to the next event.<br>

Re: Tremblant
I agree with all of the above comments- except for the deletion of the WGI event. There are other cars in the club other than Miatas. The Glen is a fabulous track- yes a horsepower track- but worldclass none-the-less. If NHIS continues it's trend of shutting us out of weekends and dates altogether, I would surely vote for another Tremblant date.<br>

Re: Tremblant
I had a blast at Tremblant! I made it into a week long vacation with Alex (my girl friend not the Miata driver <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ). This was my first non-NHIS track and my first time without my Evo and I had so much fun. <br>
<br>
Thanks to Carl and Wendy for their organization skills. Mark L for his tremendous instruction and everyone else. It was great seeing familar faces up there after being among strange Canadians for a week.<br>

Re: TREMBLANT
Scott, as the driver of an M3Stang, you should acknowledge that a BMW (yikes) set FTD.

Re: TREMBLANT
Kudos to Mark and his BMW. Mike's car is very impressive on the track. Very nimble and awesome brakes. Get a little Mustang V8 grunt under the hood and WOOHOO !<br>

Tremblant
Sounds like a great time, sorry I missed it - between work issues and blowing my travel budget (on another car...) I had to pass - def next year.<br>
<br>
Scott, I've got the T-5 from that convertible under my work bench, do you need it for NHIS?<br>

Re: Tremblant
Tom and Gary, thanks for the t5 offers. Coleen and I met George (last name ?) at the dinner. He has a low mileage- history known t5 that I'm buying. I had 3 t5s in the backyard. After tripping over them for 3-4 years, I don't think any of them are worth using. 2 are 4 cyl. turbo cpe trannys and the 3rd is a v8, but pops out of 2nd gear...I opened up my Tremblant tranny...man I really munched 3rd gear and the opposing counter shaft gear. Tom if you are not gonna use your t5 I may be interested in it as a spare.<br>
<br>
I'll be at NHIS...I can feel Mario coming...these last 3 events are gonna be fun.<br>
