The other 5% is from experienced drivers/riders who made a mistake. (it happens, I know one guy who is a great driver and hit a wall once upon a time.)
Great road, just gotta watch out for the idiots.

It's nice to know that you won't likely come upon an 18-wheeler on the track...

You mean a week from Saturday, right? Feb. 18th. S-Driver is going, and I would think Eddie will be there since his 'new' wheels will be there. I'll make the reservations once you guys decide on a time...11ish? noon? later?

GKP has a prior arrangement so can not make it - but will miss not being there. He sends his "hello" ...... Wishes he could be there.

S-driver, if you want, we can car pool. I am sort of on the way for you. At least we have company for the drive.

Sounds great! I guess I though you would be coming from up in NY like last time. What town on the coast are you coming up from?
Would you guys like me to try and get Suss to come along?

Yup, no more place in NY. Wife retired.
Also, I will e-mail you my info. Perhaps a meet up at 10:00-10:15 am would give us a slow easy drive up.
