Thanks/Kudos to Sondra and the other H2R Event Volunteers

[Chris S]

Just wanted to say thanks and give a pat on the back to Sondra, Stefan, Kurt, Randy, and all the other volunteers who made today's track day a success.

I had a great time, and I suspect we may have created at least a couple of new track junkies today.

Y'all did a great job w/ the organization, food, and keeping all the groups rolling efficiently. When is the next one?

I would like to echo Chris's thanks and extend them to the H2R crew as well. Y'all did a great job putting together a fantastic event and the track is in excellent shape. I will definitely be back.

THANK YOU!!!!

You're very welcome. It's fun to work with such a great group out there. Glad I could be a part of it. Can't wait to do more of those with you guys.

I'd also like to extend a big thanks to Sondra, Stefan, Kurt, Randy for hosting and helping out with the event. Another big thank you to my instructor, Richard S, for maximizing my track day experience. I can see why they call this crack.

I echo the comments. Thank you, Sondra and all volunteers for donating your Sunday. Harris Hill is a nice track and I look forward to other events there. Pleasure meeting you all there.

Cheers,
Ryan

Yeah, that was Rene. I can't say enough good things about him as an instructor. He was a huge help.

Grant needs to learn motorsports are best shot with slower shutter speeds. You want to see some wheel blur, some background blur. Not a shot that looks like a car parked on the track.

[Randy W]

Understand that. He's only shot a few motorsports events, and not a full track event before. That's the best of my understanding. But he's been in the business for quite some time. Will relay the info.

[bjurasz]

I've done a ton of racing photography Randy. Have him fire me an email if he wishes. [email protected].

Shot in shutter-priority mode at 1/125 second and 280mm at Texas World Speedway. My vantage point is bad, but you can see the wheel blur and "feel" the speed.

I'm glad everyone had a good time! I'm planning the next one for July and debating the merits of a two day event. I welcome your input!

For those of us who drive 3+ hrs to get there, it's definitely a better value to do a two day event. I honestly think you lost a couple of Lone Stars last weekend to the TDE event in a couple of weeks due to the value proposition of a one vs two day. Just my .02.

I agree with his points. My main concern -- which may not be a legitimate one -- would be the effects of daytime outside temperature on cars and drivers. I could be wrong but I don't think a lot of DEs are held in the July and August months. A two day event in July could cause more car issues compared to a one day event. I am wondering whether there is also increased risk of off-road excursions due to loss of attention/concentration from the heat. Given my limited experience with DEs, my thoughts could be totally off base.
