Interesting to me at least, the window sticker of a 2025 CT4 in the registry thread also shows engine made in USA and 6-speed trans in Mexico. My 2022 CT4 has the engine made in Austria and the 6 speed in USA.
 
Checked in at Spring Mountain Resort this afternoon. They have a number of brand new 2025 BW4's and BW5's. One of the workers allowed me to take a few pictures inside one of the prepping buildings.

Also saw this brand new BW5 with Precision package.

Have to be at the track at 8 am tomorrow morning.
Precision pak stands out there on the sticker 4me.... Slick top at 123K. Total options 26K.

Purpose built beast.

I thought that Austria had something to do with the ti connecting rods. 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
Heading to the V Academy next week, looking forward to sweating it out and having some fun!! Bring on the HEAT!
 
Just got back myself!! Did the class last week - had a BLAST!! Loved the karting after the class as well - glad to hear that it will now be a part of the class curriculum!!
 
Man, I was driving with A/C on max and was sweating by end of track time 😄 I am coming from northern NY though. I am going for a quick cruise since the roads are clear here, but an inch of snow coming tomorrow 🤬
Did the class last week and wanted to comment on the heat - to me - it felt GREAT!! It was a high of 103 on the second day and probably around that the first day (at least at the end of class - went karting in the full heat - LOVED it!!). I wore very lightweight hiking / fishing clothes (T-shirt and shorts) and barely broke a sweat, while I could see other classmates sweating in normal T-shirts - that right there makes a difference - having the right clothes for the environment. I also found both the classroom and the cars very COLD...I actually hard the car A/C set on 72/73 and my hands were still COLD - I put on my driving gloves and it was much better! The seat cooler kept my backside nice and cool as well. Also - they give you a personalized drink bottle - I made sure to put some liquid IV in every day and was CONSTANTLY drinking...and urinating, of course - watch the color - should be clear to light straw in color...if it's dark / really yellow - you've got an issue! Full disclosure - I was MASSIVE a year ago - I literally lost a 106 pound blanket since then so I now feel MUCH better and get cold much easier! Had a blast! Wish we had more track time!
 
Brad, congrats on the weight loss. That is a monumental accomplishment.
 
I will be there June 16-17 with my son. This is my second time so I gifted this class to my son and I will be there as a guest.
 
I plan on signing up just not sure if i want to do it before it gets crazy hot here or wait until Oct ish time frame.
 
That ship may have sailed, they opened up Oct dates last month. Slots, especially for 6MT 5BW, fill really fast.

You're right i just looked. I may just call and see if there's a reserve list incase someone backs out. I'm only an hour half away in Vegas

Take the bird in hand if dates are available, don't worry about the heat.

agreed - I was there in July. It was hot, but barely noticeable. You spend very little time outside - just walking from classroom to the car and back a few times. Then windows up for exercises and laps. And they keep the cars running, so they are cool on entry.
 
They sent me an email yesterday as follows:

I think this is for Canadians I guess?

We are adding new CAD dates, and I will likely send another email out on Tuesday, June 10th, between 10:00-10:30am. Please keep in mind we are on the West Coast . When that email is received it is VERY important that you email me back asap with the following information so I can attempt to hold you a seat:

Date/Dates Interested in Attending – Multiple dates are great to increase the chance of getting a spot!

Number of drivers (this does not include someone who is just attending as a Non-Driving Guest)

Car Types – Only 1 CAD driver per VIN

The emails will go out to all clients at the same time, this includes the clients of other Sales Associates. These dates will sell out EXTREMELY FAST! If you have previously contacted me regarding a date those emails will NOT save you the date you want. You will need to resend them to me once you receive the dates email from me to keep it fair to all clients trying to book! PLEASE DO NOT CALL. The phone lines are extremely busy when we release dates, and it is nearly impossible to get through. The fastest way to secure your seat is by EMAIL.
 
Karting now?! Darn, just missed it I guess.
