And no need to be there early, the action won't start until after 9 and most of us are in 2nd and 3rd heat. :nod: |
Laura you could probably do it, I did for the first time about a month ago. See you all on Saturday

The wife makes a last minute call to join a fund raising yard sale at our kids' school tomorrow morning. I will have to help arranging the showcase in the morning before the autox. :sad:
I should be there before noon, and will join you all on the afternoon round. :nod: |
It was a lot of fun watching you all run the course. Makes me think that I might have to give it a try next time.
See ya, Brian |

I have a great farmers tan going on too. After hanging out with you all, I spent 1 1/2 hrs on 495 just before the Wilson Bridge. Some guy had a carbeque on the bridge and a whole bunch of us we standing around waiting for the traffic to move. At least I had some fun watching a few Mini racing around a parking lot.
