Not yet, but the numbers Jan and I discussed are definitely competitive. As we firm up the details I'll post them.

While it'd be nice to have Erik come up, let's hope we can get both of these sessions rolling.

ill be honest... I'm going to go to whichever is convenient. I'd love to have a reason to go up to indy... but i'm already working in atlanta and commuting to TN every week. so that would mean that if i had to go up to indy for a tune... i'd put on some where around 1800 miles that week and a full 60 hour work week.

so yeah... atlanta would be much much more convenient.

Heh heh, my car is still in America but I wish it was here. Those mtn. roads just beg to be driven.

Odds are this thing will happen in Nov. so I might be out, but if it's in mid to late Dec. and not to expensive, I'm there. But there is always next summer...
