All is well here, thank you for asking! Hope the same is true on your side of things. I'm looking forward to the races in 2 weeks.
Will you be able to make it?

My perception of ECR is that it is much more challenging than Hallett, and that it is kind of rough in places. I've never seen so many spins with cars trying to leave the pits. I'd say the pit exit is poorly planned and executed from a design standpoint. I would also say that if you know it is designed like that-with a very slow chicane- you should go though there slow enough to not spin!
If you leave the track, you are into some car altering rocks and terrain, so you better keep it on the asphalt.
I think when it is sorted out and some thought can be put into run off areas and they do some more grading work, it will be a great place.
Mark:
Glad you set up your page on the VRL website. I agree that this site will be a great resource for us all. Happy New Year to you.
Sincerely,
Brian

Welcome to the VRL. I have seen you at a couple of races but I don't know that we have had the opportunity to speak. Yours is a really nice Merlyn. Is that a MK 29?
