Alright -- who is pimping out their car?? I am willing to try anything.

I won't have the z06 with me, so I can't offer a chance to drive it. Sorry

We may be running scoring using rallycross rules, depending on how we're feeling at the time, and there may be a prize for cumulative FTD. No promises, though.


This might be interesting... :D

Will there be food on site, or are we on our own? Haven't seen anything mentioned in this thread. I figured free event, free food, kinda goes hand in hand....

...and that's a good thing, Christine needs some time away from the grill and spend some time on the track, but I for one will miss her cooking!

Todd, are we still on for some teaching of the T&S skills for this weekend?

signed, lackey in training....

So I think I have at least 90% of the course mapped out... and there are only 40 cones involved.

:lol:

Thought about doing some tricky stuff, but I keep hearing "fast, fast, fast" and "we don't need tricky - we just need fun" - plus I've had a request from a Corvette hack to make him hit the rev limit in 2nd gear. So if you're afeared of fast courses, stay home.

:P
