Default MSR Cresson

I went to MSR Cresson today in my stock 2004 Z06, to instruct my Son-in-Law, Jeremy, for a Christmas present. He had never driven a car of any kind on track. He went from zero to a best time of 1:30.2 (1.7 mile CCW) in 7 sessions without a single spin or off track. My daughter, Sarah, also drove on track for the first time without any incidents. (OK if you think I'm proud of them..............you're right)

Great times and no spins - difficult to do your first time out at Cresson. Looks like you may have a family activity here!

Nice present, Garrett. Your Z's pretty sharp as well. With luck I'll be meeting with y'all with my LS1 Miata next year!

Have a Merry Christmas!

Sounds like a great time! I can't wait till my daughter is old enough for a track day. Karts will be first. She is only a 1yr old so I have time to get ready
