Damn. That pipped my time of - 22:4 set on a very cold track in January. Fastest time in our group was a 21:7 but that guy was doing the school for theh second time.

Hey what did you guys think of the M6 seats?

I much prefer the M5 comfort seats and was disappointed to learn today that the US M6GC is also not getting the M6 comfort seats but the other M6 seats.

I really liked the M6! As for seats, I didn't notice much difference, the M6 has way more legroom; actually at 6'5" I could get the seat to go further back than I needed.

Today should be fun!

I agree with you stealth. I found the M5 seats to be more comfortable. Also, the M6 bolsters don't help nearly as much as those in the M3.

Was really fun driving all 3 cars and experiencing their unique characteristics.

Just finished the 2 day school. What a blast! It made it extra special to be with the group who came from this thread. The only let down for me was that I was promised something "special " for our group which never happened. I guess we made it special. I am tired with big grin on my face. My camera broke while here so only iPhone pics. Others with real cameras will post theirs ( I hope).

Feel free to add, it could prevent future infections!

HAHAHHA! Yeah, 21.4, minus 2...19.4 that is my time. In the rain :

Seriously though, 22.251. 22.0 that didn't count, I flew the stop-box!

+1M on the event. Blast, fun, epic, <insert adjective here>. Count me in for the next event!

I had a great time

Sorry to not being able to say formal goodbye to each of you .
Barely made 6:15 flight after leaving at 3:50 due to accident delay on highway.
Kudos to the instructors for encouraging and enabling me to squeeze every minute of my last (M6 lapping) session before calling me into the pits.

Talk about M fever. Driving home in my jealous beast from airport near midnight in the rural twisties, I was so velocitized it felt like I was crawling along. I did manage, however, to engage a few "compromise corners" before short shifting to third : and braking hard and downshifting to second at the "bus stop" at my subdivison entrance thus allowing smooth power application in third up to my house and coming to a complete stop in the stopbox....er....driveway. whew!

Looks like this is a known issue for at least RobM5 and myself. There are only 30 sessions on mine, but many of those are just staging (wasted). I did find that all of the footage is on the USB drive, but needed to get the Race-Keeper Comparo software to import/export the sessions. I'll see if I can put together a quick DYI on how to get the software and export the sessions.
