Santa Run PDX and Driving School at TGPR 12/7

[bimmertech]

Preliminary reports are this event was a huge success! Hats off to all who participated and volunteered. Track management had no complaints about our conduct which is more than can be said for most events. We hosted 26 drivers and 11 instructors as well as introducing high performance driving to 9 people for the very first time.This was definitely a learning experience for me and we've already found ways to make the next one better. I'm sorry for those who questioned the weather and missed out. Maybe next time!

Great turnout today! In my decades of running at Talladega, I believe I set a personal record for seat time today. I drove 2 sessions in my own street car, plus 7 sessions riding in the Instructor seat. That is nine 20 minute sessions today.

Yep, I am tired out this evening, but it is a good tired

Looking forward to seeing y'all again April 12th

Thanks Casey for organizing this PDX

Hated Zac & I had to withdraw. Stupid leaky roof...couldn't get anyone out to look at it 'til mid-day Saturday.

A HUGE thanks to all of the workers and people that made this possible!

I had a blast! Hated that this was my first PDX this year, next year I'm going to do my best to make more events. The M3 didn't miss a beat and didn't take long to get used to it on track.

Another thanks to the workers and the new PDX folks getting out there on a cold day to get their first taste of a track experience.

Casey, thanks for organizing the event.
Andy, thanks for being our Safety Steward while not even driving the event.
