this will be my third event with them; which run group did you sign for? they seem to like you to start at least HPDE2 and then have one check ride with you and move you along (can be the same first day).. at least in Florida anyways.

Kori I've run with nasa...which track you doing with them? You'll find they're very busy all day but I like the fact they swap cars on a hot track at all times. You don't get nearly as much track time with them though

I signed up for hpde3. they still have no schedule prepared for the weekend. so I have no idea how many sessions and when the sessions begin. also it seems they had difficulty filling up instructors for the weekend so maybe I get lucky and don't have to start hpde2. weather looks promising right now. keeping my fingers crossed

Chris, it's on the main. what do you mean by swapping cars? how many/long each session?

[Focusedintntions]

Kori,
By swapping cars i mean as one group is coming off the track the next group is going on. Basically say Group 3 is doing their cool down lap, right after the last car of the group passes the flag and gets to turn 1, it becomes Group 4's warm up lap and they let the cars out on the track.

If i remember correctly it was like three 25 minute sessions. Not very much track time for the $$.

[yandy]

Down here we get four 20 minute sessions, still not that much track time. The one reason I like going with them is, they're very organized, and once you're in hPDE3 and above, everyone is very predictable, and I can't say the same for other groups. Some organizations Intermediate and advanced groups are not very well prepared.

three 20 min sessions would make it the least cost worthy event. I hope that's not the case here
