This happens the day after I leave Massachusetts to go back to Kansas. To suggest I'm pissed off is an understatement.

Damn! I can't open the link. Do you know if this is a travelling circus or only for Boston?

I hope they travel to Ogdensburg. I hear it's the best town in all of New York!

I used to get invited to these all the time. Then I bought a BMW.

The ones I went to were pretty boring.. at least for me. A lot of sales pitch... not much seat time. No hooning.

btw did this with my little brother.. he had a 4 hours session where it taught teens how to drive with obstacles like road obstructions and proper braking. I was impressed he's going back again this weekend.

awesome! Did you do the auto-x at all?

lq9e30 > Jonathan Harper
06/18/2014 at 17:21

Yes set the fastest time off the day in a 535i. Some guy was bragging about setting a 38 flat the day before and came back to better his time. He ran a 38.11 I ran a 36.69. I messed up in the first corner and it cost me I could have done around 35.7.

This was a blast. If it comes to your town, do it. I ran a 36s lap in the 2-series. Instructors we doing it in 33-34 but whatever, I'm not a pro.
