Will post a full photo report in a bit in the Open Discussion forum, but had the opportunity to take part in the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School outside of Vegas. Nothing like speed with a Rolex on the wrist.

Let's see your Rolex track pics as well!

Thought this was going to be a Daytona thread... Pleasantly surprised to see pictures of an LV sub when I clicked on the link

Sweeet! I love these 'free' tires and brakes events.

Wait. It’s not your car?

Well then! I expect a red flag in 7 minutes and of course, pictures.

My car stayed in NorCal, Chewy - we got to turn on burn on theirs, thank goodness! I've never driven a car so hard, haha.

And for all those saying I should be wearing a Daytona...I'm a Sub/GMT guy!!

Chewbacca · 26 July 2022, 02:14 AM

I expect photos of you at a tire store after. Enjoy the day! Get me lots of pictures!

jcatt · 26 July 2022, 02:17 AM

I got their 2 day course for free when I bought my (long since sold) C7. But you should be wearing a Daytona!

2loaded · 26 July 2022, 02:18 AM

Shouldn't the watch be a Daytona ? Hah!
Looks like a great time, thanks for sharing.

It was a while ago, and I don't even think I was into watches back then. I'm the only Asian student in the class, so not too hard to spot. I had a great time putting the car to the limit. I was in a Z51, and someone in my group was in a Z06. He'd pul away from me on the straight, and I'd catch up to him on the corners, it was a good cat/mouse game hehe.

For your next adventure, I highly recommend the BMW Performance Center in Thermal CA

I'll throw another nod to the BMW Thermal Club. I had run in this bad boy. It did not suck.

1st amg · 26 July 2022, 03:33 AM

Oh boy…so happy for you Jesse! That is an invaluable experience you just gained. You will never ever be able to explore the limits of your car. It’s a great school, my brother did it after receiving his Z06 a couple of years ago. He still talks about it

Thanks gents! I'm flying back home today (did the course Fri/Sat) and it was definitely one of the most exhilarating experiences I've had in my life!! Just editing a few pics and then will post later today.

Sadly, I did not spy any other Rolex enthusiasts out there this weekend...but I could be mistaken!

Easy E · 26 July 2022, 04:10 AM

Yes!!!

TheVTCGuy · 26 July 2022, 05:06 AM

I wonder if they would let me bring my Ford Fusion Hybrid and do this event?

They have open track days for members. Membership is rather pricey but worth it if you plan on taking the car out at least every other weekend for the weekend

MrMercedes · 26 July 2022, 05:18 AM

Great!! Thx for sharing!

Beo3 · 26 July 2022, 05:22 AM

Wait, Jesse started a thread and there are only two photos?

Glad you enjoyed yourself, and its always better to beat on someone else's car.

Oh Eddie, just you wait...I'll see you on our regularly trafficked side of TRF!

Turbo Racer · 26 July 2022, 05:45 AM

Spring mountain is a really fun track. Ron Fellows is one of the nicest guys and one heck of a race car driver. Glad you got to experience this!

Cru Jones · 26 July 2022, 06:13 AM

Great event, great watch!

Carguy87 · 26 July 2022, 06:23 AM

At SpeedVegas on the trip where I got my JC. In fact I got the watch about 3 hours after this was
taken. That NSX is a beast on the track!

Under the hood of my daily. 652hp @ the tires (4,500 ft elevation too)
