Damn 61 miles?!?!?!? That's a lot of miles to put on my car at once.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

It's a ways for me too since I'm in Wylie. But to get to any event like this we have to get out into the countryside. No traffic, great scenery, tons of twists and turns. The first time I did this, I had my reservations as well, then I did it and it was a BLAST! Plus, you get to do it with members from the club with the same interest. It's a win/win.
