Yah wish i can do it.

Can we do a Pacific Raceways or Mission day instead? I had never been to any ITR meets, and have the car for like 5 years now, let's do one soon.

I might go down to Pacific Raceway again this season. Hoping to do Oregon raceway but had to use my time off for something else. So once again I'm stuck with PR.

Some local people would drive down to PR for a Honda-Tech meet but they won't go there for a lapping event saying it's too long of a drive. Really don't get it.......

I heard you have a talented younger brother that can drive fairly well. You should pay for the tow, and all expenses to it so he can live the dream

Shit may happen even you just drive down there for a meet instead of a lapping day.

Tow the car back. Deal with it.

You can use Google Street View on Laguna Seca itself. Seems like the Google camera car was on the track during an event, cuz theres some pretty nice race cars on the track too!

I'm thinking about it....

ITR Expo is not a typical track day -- more like a big show and shine with some easy lapping. Too many cars show up to do a proper track day
