Starting this thread for all attendees to share pics & videos of the event for members here to see.

Please share what you can to promote this great event and keep it going for many more decades.

It's an event that is hard to put into words.

I'll put together a "my experience" type thread in the future.

Some of you have probably read what I'm about to say elsewhere already, but I feel it's a must to repeat.

As I sift my way through videos and pictures of the week long adrenaline rush, one glaring regret keeps poking at me.

Coming to the convention for the 1st time I was instantly in awe of all the great SHO'S that came to participate. Some of the cleanest gen 1 thru 5's around.

But as the week wore on I realized that it's not these cars that make the Convention so special, it's the unbelievable people that these cars bring together that makes it such a great event.

Big thanks to everyone involved for an experience of a lifetime. Really wish I'd of gotten more pics of the people there now.

This is a couple videos of my 1st run around the road course at Blackhawk farms without instructor.

It is not a race, a day to learn a road course and "your" cars abilities.

I had a 3 lap run with instructor driving, the 4-5 laps with instructor braving the passenger seat my 1st ever session on a road course.

When 2nd session came up and there were alot of novice classed drivers needing instructor rides, they set me free to run it myself!!!

Torched the brakes...oops, lol

It was great to meeting you Rich looking forward to seeing you at Nashville next year.  That 3 mile track will be awesome.  I will be trying to edit and upload videos from Black Hawk later, and post them here.  I didn't torch my brakes, but had Bluetooth issues so no speed or telemetry in videos... I had fun anyways..  I do need new set of tires....lol
