Thanks to all that helped out with the school and big thanks to all the students and instructors. Thank you all!
I had a great time, and learned more than my mind could compute in one day. It would've been nice to have a few more runs on Sunday to implement my learnings. I hope Dave wasn't too sore after getting thrown around in a bench seat truck! lol

A huge thanks to Team ETR, all the instructors, and participants for putting this school on! Jeff and Dave were my instructors and they gave good advice, but I think they seemed to be happier just getting to drive my truck, just because its a classic truck that gets driven hard, not pampered at shows.

We also wanted to say thank you to all of the instructors and friendly peeps we met. Betty got a nosebleed at the end but tbh, it was worth it. I had such a good time. We already purchased a different vehicle, no more Corvette for that.. :oops:


Thanks again for all the patience and insuring us that we now have another hobby we have to support...lol

Glad to see you all stick with it. That's a tough first day of autocross and is far from a usual experience.

I'm so glad you both will be back out. I wish I had gotten a chance to talk to you a bit more before you had to leave. Hopefully the damage was as minor as it seemed at the event. Maybe we will see you at the Adesa event?

Oh , we will be back..We had way to much fun.
The damage to the Corvette is minor compared what could have happened.
We found a really nice Mustang GT to race ,we just not sure yet if it will be ready for that race.But either way we will be there , either to participate or to help out.

Like my wife said, it was way too much fun so we will be back. Less than 24 hours after the accident we had found and bought a new car to race, a 1995 Mustang GT. Should be ready by the next event.

The instructors were great. Matter of fact everyone we met were great and that is the main reason we are coming back.
