DAY 2 - During our classroom session, Turbo goes over some of the flags again. I am certainly familiar with the black flag after yesterday...so I am glad he doesn't pull that one out again

Before the track goes hot, I wakl around the paddock. I'm not sure why I bothered to take a photo of Roger's NSX LOL

Thunderhill paddock...you have to arrive very early to find a parking space under the canopies

Jim Cozzolino, the HPDE event coordinator, preps his car for the day

I have time to check out Thunderhill's Pro Shop before my first session

Jim rolls out

Which way do I go?

First intermediate session of day 2. I will remember this moment as having just passed this NC1 on the front straight (yes, my memory is really THAT bad LOL). Note the lean...this is one of the downhill off-camber turns that have posed quite the challenge. (Photo by Trevor Ryan)

We are fairly confident that is me on the track in this shot. Even if it isn't, this shot is cool enough to merit inclusion here (Photo by AJ Aviles)

Here I use the inside curb wihle nailing that apex...

...and I use the whole track to exit the turn

I grab my DSLR to get some photos of the instructor group first session. Here's a shot of one of the NSXs leaving the pits.
