This is one of the craziest things I've seen Mike!

I've done a HPDE at Thunderhill and turn five scared the shit out of me. I can't imagine getting on two wheels going over it, landing, then taking that off-camber right hander. Geeze...

Been there, done that. That inside curbing makes a very nice launch ramp for the left side of the car. One time I caught only the rear wheel on it and it lifted the rear end up and the car spun about 270 degrees ending up parked in the bypass below headed in the right direction.

Getting two wheels up in Turn 5 is the best thing ever!

I believe she mentioned she was going to, we're hoping to come out as well as we have not ran the full track there before and never ran the L there period.

Sweet! Make sure to bring all your Bay Area cronies too... rumor has it that last time Bonnie lost money on the RFR event, and us Reno folks did our best to drum up local support... I'd hate to see the TEAM events at RFR go away due to financial reasons. They put on one of the better events.

Yea for sure, we would be bringing 4 cars just from the shop so it should help her cover the cost.
