Almost two months equals plenty of time.

You might be able to talk someone in to co-driving for the right price...

This is honestly the first time I've ever seriously wondered if my car is ready for the track.

Must bolt in Forza and Sabelt harness.

Will see if I can swing it.

yep, never been out there, but looks like a badass track.

I've only seen TWS, and Harris looks like it's got some nice elevation changes to keep things interesting.

HHR is a awesome track, its almost the antithesis to TWS. Very short lap, no real straight to speak of,tons of elevation changes, and blind corners.

I wish i could make this event.

Is that you Geezer or someone else with a white NC in Austin?

No, just watched my brother do a Ride Smart motorcycle track day. I go to school up there...and have never had the opportunity, time or money.

Looks fast, atleast for my Miata, but I know the A&M sports car club guys love it. Turn 10 looks like ***** out fun.

I'm more a fan of slower, tight tracks, which is why I'll make the effort to get out to Harris Hill even though I literally drive by TWS every day.

You can rape and pillage at H2R and it's closer (15 minutes for me FTW).

Bring the daily if nothing else.
