2012 Houston MSR Track Event

The Space City gang got together with the Lamborghini Club and attended their ‘10th Annual Day After Christmas Drive’.
It got rained out on the 26th, so it was postponed and we attended the ‘Day After New Year Drive’!

Rather than cruise the back roads of Montgomery County and have numerous officers of the peace frowning on the event, they decided to have it at
Houston MSR.

Everyone showed up at around 10AM, a quick driver’s meeting was held and the two groups started going out.
There was a novice group with instructors for people who had not been on the track before and an ‘experienced’ group for those that had.

Those attending from Space City Panteras (forgive me if I forgot anyone!) were:

Gray Gregory and Heidi Schrader - Lotus Exige
Kirby and Cynthia Schrader - GT40
Rob Pink - Pantera
Steve Hawkins
John Taphorn
Will Kooiman - Dodge Viper GTS
John Sweeney
David Bell - Pantera
Ed Nagel - Volvo V70R
Wally Meyer and Lyndal Harrison - Lotus Exige
Ankur Kataria
Jim Narum
Randy ??? - 67 Mustang

Who’d I miss? I will update this with better information when I get it. Thanks.

PIctures below and here’s a couple of links to yours truly going around the track in the GT40.
Yes, I lost it on a curve with John Taphorn as passenger and spun it… 360 degrees and carried on.
