Oh awesome! Post up your video! It was an amazing event! Glad I got to participate!

Glad you had a great time, and would like to hear more about the day's itinerary. I thought I was going to make it in, but was unable to complete the registration with my invitation code because I had registered on the site earlier in the day. By the time I figured out it was expecting an unregistered email address and entered my alternate, it had filled up. Felt like I went from the top of the roller coaster to the very bottom and was depressed the rest of the week. Maybe I'll get in for the next one if and when it happens.

@MC sweet dude! Nice GT-R! I love how they put my 370z in the intro to everyone's video ImageUploadedByTapatalk1373009402.780712.jpg
Love that picture of my beast lol.

^^ so the day was different for everyone depending on what group you were assigned but essentially everyone did the same things throughout the day. Here's how my day went.

Got there did registration they fed us breakfast then went strAight on track. They walked us down there and our cars were already on track all numbered up! We did a few laps with instructors guiding us and telling us the proper way to take corners etc. then we went back did a class room module then auto crossed the Nismo juke for practice. Then we did some acceleration tests with the GTR with slaloming and the 370z. After that lunch then on the track in our cars with some faster laps I got up to 145ish in my car but slowed down by the car in front of me. Then the track in their cars the GTR and 370z Nismo was what I drove and what a blast! Grips like you wouldn't believe around those corners! Then we autocrossed the Nismo juke for best times I did it in 31.092 which was the 2nd fastest in my group the fastest was 29.7 really fast dude. After that was awards and a final victory parade lap! Very exciting day! Got about 2-3 hours of track time and it was very organized!

I ended up with a 31.3 in the Autocross... I did have a passenger during it though as a news crew came out and Nissan PR had me show the camera woman a lap for them
