I just got back from LRP with the NNJ region porsche club, and cannot say enough about how well they ran the event....everything was right on schedule down to the minute! five run groups of 30 cars, four sessions of 24 minutes each....I put 219 miles on over the 2 days.

The track is a bit rough where they added some concrete patches in big bend and kind of bumpy at the end of the diving turn, but is still a fun track....They had some instructors cancel out last minute, so I instructed an intermediate student and took an occasional rookie on an as needed basis, all this in 95 degree heat! I think I drank about a case each of water and gatorade over the 2 days....I didnt even have to change tires, brakes, or anything else, so it was nice to just run for a change

I must admit, those porsches are very impressive....I ran well with a bunch of them in the instructor run group, but some just flat out fly, and a few didnt even need to brake except for at the end of the main straight!

not quite the same with my heavy almost 4000 pound car

but everyone could certainly hear my car coming around the track

two of my friends from svtperformance came by, but without cars....the porsche club is interested in having us attend other events, so stay tuned, and hopefully next time we'll get a few more members to attend

absolutely!!! The porsche club has opened its doors to us, which is quite an honor, considering their events have always been "porsche only" events....
