Hope to see some Vette in the morning. I know of one going. I hope to go Thursday also.

Just came back from the NASA/PDA LRP event. Didn't see you there.
Weather gods were very kind. No rain whatsoever, though cloudy and cold all day.
There were a couple 'incidents', the worst of which involved an MR2 spewing coolant and spinning in his own detritus in the exit to West Bend, coming to rest broadside in the middle of the track. A Porsche 911, trying to avoid, spun and hit the outside wall just under the infield bridge prior to the downhill.
I came around West Bend driving a friend's C4 at full throttle and saw the MR2 directly in T-bone territory. I hit the brakes in his coolant while still turning and thought I was about to become part of the carnage while sliding opposite lock toward the Mr2, but the car miraculously hooked and I was able to drive by on the right side unscathed. Damn lucky! Had a 'never-ever' student in the right seat. Hope he didn't soil himself.
Hope you make it for the 8th.
