Re: Oktoberfest



>Any updates or reviews of O'Fest down in Orlando for us sorry saps who 
weren't able to make it? How was the Club Race? <

As conveyed to me:

A TC Kline Z3 was stuffed head-on into a concrete barrier at high speed,
driver was OK, Z3 was not OK,.  Supposedly, brakes overheated and failed at a
critical moment, purportedly after making a hot stop into the pits.  Another
vehicle, think it was a 2002, rolled.  Club race was red-flagged & no points
awarded. 

>Did anyone stand out in the Driving Schools?<

Nobody should ever stand out at a BMW Driver School, it is a learning
experience, not a race.  The only people who stand out are the ones who get
black flagged for poor judgment.

> Did Sebring finish their track upgrades in time for the event?<

No, they ran on a modified short course.
