It was a great day. the sun was out for a change it was about 75 degrees and everyone there was out to have a good time. I didnt see any cars get towed off the track nor did I hear about any off track excursions. Joel and I had a great time in the blue run group we set a good pace for each other and played tag all day. John sorry you couldnt get up this weekend but hope to see you soon. John are you going to the event at Pocono on May 28.

I was at Pocono on the 22nd, but it wasnt with the Z, it was with the bike.. I think people were looking at me funny when I walked past the car registration office while wearing my Z06vette.com sweatshirt and walked into the bike office.. I saw two guys point like, wheres he going, the meetings here.. lol..

I definitely need to take the car out one of these days...

How was North? We were on East course which was okay (its definitely no VIR) just a lot of rough pavement sections which aren't too much fun when on a bike.. Certainly made for some good times..

what lap times do the bikes do on the east course? Best I have seen were 1:11 when I timed them. Someone said a pro did a 1:07 What type of bike were you running?
