Re: Spring is almost here anyone thinking about Monticello
I prolly can't make this one since it is right after driver school, but getting ready for the season - YES!!!
The Civic is seeing last finishing touches, 1st test day will be Apr 12 at LRP; I got myself a new yellow driver suit and still need to stitch on the patches... among those, that little German flag I picked up in a tourist shop near the Cologne cathedral, next to the Cuckoo watch fridge magnets ...
Can't wait!!!

I registered for Monticello today, very excited.
Re: Spring is almost here anyone thinking about Monticello
I'm signed up. Looking for a decent track video to learn the course. I've found some, but I don't want to learn bad habits from watching any random video I find. Any recommendations?

I'm going as well. I haven't registered as yet. I'm still swallowing the tire pill...
...and I just heard that Wasilko took all my new rubber at Fastrack for himself....so I think I need to go buy more..

Just think how much faster the orange bimmer would have been if he had a clue what an apex was.
Great vid, had my palms sweating!!

I'm in, will register in the next week. The Audi should be ready for this event with any luck, if not the MIata will be coming.
