I'm waiting on a MoSA special deal for Phil Wicks it's just too much money with out it. I'm a little leary of the Phil Wicks school sounds like too many people too few instructors.

The IMSHOF and Talladega Superspeedway weekend has been moved up to the weekend before due to the Rolex weekend at Barbers.
So July 14th, is our plans to make a trip to Talladega.

Looks like it going to be the 28th. Rick has already made commitments for the 14th, so I am awaiting a call from him to see if the 28th, is ok.
If So we can make it a hwy. 25 drive to and from the track, plus add a lunch on the way up there at the The Shack, off of hwy 34 next to stemely bridge.
Will post back later today with final results on Ricks schedule.

Yes I postponed this event until more interest could be generated. I had ask Vice President of the Speedway to be our guide for the tour and a few special things at the speedway, but it seemed like the only time he and I could make it happen, there was to many other things happening at the same time. Maybe we can reshedule this for a next year outing?

Well to be honest I started a lot of the drives last year but I had a partner in crime (shorn) who I knew would show up even if no one else did. Now he works & isn't free most weekends so I am apprehensive to plan as I never know if people will come & not many RSVP in the threads & well it would just suck to plan something & end up doing it by myself when no one shows up

I am free most of the time so if any one person will commit to a drive just name where & when & I will gladly post it & prod everybody into going with us.
