Will there be timing equipment?
I'll need to see how close I can get to Muddy.

Oh, and I'll try to bring 2 loaner helments.

135 hp.... Sure, but what about the Flux Capacitor? That would guarantee you FTD!

Just found out 9 time national champion Danny Shields is filling in for Jean on Sunday. Guess she could not make it.

Didn't he get beaten by a Mazdaspeed Miata three weeks ago?
Kidding.

Danny and John have very different driving styles.
John is way more aggressive. Danny is the definition of smooth.
This should be a really good class.

I'm Guessing Muddy is coming on his old Hankooks. Smart move.
I plan to turn my new V-710s into my old V-710s.

I found out last night that 3 time National Champion Sharron Shields is also coming. I'm pretty sure she won't be doing any in-car instruction, but she does plan to take a few runs and will be there for questions.

14 Students.
3 National champions
9 hours on site (Direstions can be found at the FAST website)
1 fun day.

I can't afford to turn my new v-710s into my old v-710s! They need to last a FAST season.

On the other hand, for the $30 to get them mounted, I can burn up some tires nobody wanted. I will beat them mercilessly this summer, then re-mount the v710s.
