I am glad you guys got to ride with Scott.
Do you know if he ran with the traction control off?
There was rain in the morning Monday and he used the puddles to slides the back a bit during my ride.
You had a much sunnier day yesterday.
No complaining about the hair net as I had to wear a full headsock.
Regarding forum organization, half the threads are in the prototypes section and half are in car chat. Can we have an LFA section?

Thx for posting!!!
I was so jazzed when I did the IS-F event at California Speedway, driving on the track and the hot lap, but the LFA experience looks out of this world!

i was there when the event was at fontana. the LFA fly-by is something that only motorheads can truly appreciate.
