My track weekend @ Grattan raceway
Here is what I saw when I woke up on Sunday, little did I know that it was going to be the best weather day out of the weekend.

So here is some of the guys not letting the weather bother them one bit, Audi guys are a tough crew!

The garage that I was in was the nicest out of all of them, I had a really nice heater, a big screen TV and even had a microwave, although you could not see it from this pic. lol

And then we have the track itself, wow, without a doubt my favorite track so far, not sure which is more fun, #3 if you are in it - you know, # 5,6,7 & 8 combo or the 11 & 12 combo, really they are all fun and together is just a riot!
Here is #8 or AKA the "bowl"

And here is one of my favorite instructors and just an all around great guy, Ken K.
He is actually making an announcment and is behind his car about 30 feet trying to stay warm near the building.

Lastly, Ken had stated early Sunday morning while @ the drivers meeting, looking from the garages toward the track and in between a black trailer and the building where class was, that this could make a great image, or something like that, maybe great scenery or something, and here is what I came up with, I agree too, great scenery shot!

Hope that everyone has a chance to enjoy this track as much as I did!

how'd you hear about that?
I hear that gingermann in south haven has track nights on tuesday and thursday where it's all-you-can-run for a reasonable 20-50 flat rate (can't remember and it's not posted)

I loved Gratten last year and I had Ken as my instructor as well, great guy. Did he tell you...
...about our off road excersion last year? The accident advoidance excercises really work.
Gratten is a great little track. Like you, I can't decide which turns I like best.
i'm bummed I missed it.
