I want to thank Jeremy and Barry for being my co-chairs on Sunday. Also Brian Nemy for doing the equivalent work of a co-chair. He drove the motor home both ways and it seemed like he ran the grid th

I thought the course was wonderful. I find that due to the shape of Golden Gate Fields most of the courses are straight out and straight back but this last course had some fun twists and turns. Perso

I assumed when I read the above that "unclear areas" meant "unclear as to the best line" vs. "unclear as to where to go", fwiw. I never saw the interpretation at GGF, but I didn't find this year's S

Hey, I liked the course. It was easy to remember after my course walk, and my underpowered car didn't do too badly, especially on street tires. I think it allowed me to take advantage of my beemer's

Vernon, I loved the course! I found out several new things about driving my car in that tight little turn. I, for one, enjoy the challenge of courses that require more coordination and manipulation o

Um, at GGF there are no optional lines after the first run group. Everything else is littered with gravel. There were two problems Sunday with "where do I go", one of which I discussed privately with

I think it's important to separate safety from making beginners feel good. They can be realted, but they are not inseperable. I don't think anyone wants a course that lends itself to people getting k

That was the general idea. I am always amazed at how different Nationals courses are from ours. The courses are a bit faster, yes, but mostly have lots of misleading corners that either make you want

Optimizing lines through fast sections, shifting to 3rd, shifting from 3rd to 2nd while braking, picking braking points at higher speeds. Oh, and it was fun, which is kinda why I do this :-) Mark

Would it be possible to implement an informal course difficulty rating system, i.e., A, B, C? This could potentially be published when the new season's event schedule comes out, with the expectation
