Why is there only 1 914 out of 90 slots available? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Kind of a weak showing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) It will be a great weekend....I have a great bunch of instructors working in my group this year. Actually several 914 pilots.....even someone that has gone to the dark side for the time being (BillP.) Luckily I didn't get Bill and Randal together...that would have been too much to handle (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Just kidding... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) With all the 914s in norcal I would have thought there would have been at least 4 or 5 in attendance... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Reporting for duty Sir! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)
I Looked at the instructor pairings and it looks like I have a couple who are sharing a Boxster....allright!.....mid-engined and another couple to try and convince to come on out as a team! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) .... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) What time are you guys getting there? Doug and Neil told me to bring my trailer to house the lunch line and since Fritz is in there, we'll have a car to flog with the students.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/burnout.gif) Looks like I only have Saturday duty since I signed up late to instruct....you guys have both days. I'll work on JLO Sunday.

Would have been great to have you on my team Randal....
I am planning on getting there between 6:30 and 6:45. We have to set up the double box and a skid pad. I want the 2X box to be pretty large this year if we have enough room. I want to make it pretty wide also.. I would like it to be at least 75-100 feet, or more, on each side and at least 25-30 feet wide (driving area). I was wondering why you were only assigned for Saturday Bill. I can't believe they had an over abundance of instructors....that hasn't happened in years. See you guys early at Candlestick like every other year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Good idea on the 2X box Dan. If it's small the students don't feel the result (or error) of their ways.... I'll be up there by 7:00AM with the trailer. |

I've got (2) EZ ups in the trailer. I doubt we will need Fritz since these are exercises instead of a course on Saturday, but it's too hot to unload so we'll stuff the 911 over in the corner of the parking lot if need be. We can use the trailer and the EZ ups to cover the food and drinks. Bill P. |

I tend to not even drive my car on Sundays anymore...this weekend is really for the students. If they want a demo...I do it in their car so they learn more. I have never felt doing demo rides in a fully prepped race/AX car was very informative for a student driving a stock street car. I take them out in their own car and show them what the car is capable of in the hands of someone more experienced. That tends to give them more information IMHO (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Weather report looks as though it is going to be pretty warm out on the tarmac this weekend. Hope the wind stays calm... See you in the early AM. |

Right, it's better to show them what their car will do, but it not nearly as much fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
