Hey, who is this? Do you race at E-Town? I lived in Millstone Township until I got married.

Rob, my brother is a wuss. If he thinks it will rain I may have to go steal the car to bring it out. I have the code to the garage though and have a spare key!

Raceway Park has pulled the plug on tomorrows racing, Saturday the 29th.

They will decide on Sunday by 5:00 PM on the 29th.

Anyway, the tribute for John will happen next Saturday instead.

I plan on being there with my vette. I am new to the vette world. Met JPEE once but read many of his posts. Seemed like a great guy. Terrible loss. I don't know you guys. I have never bracket raced but did a lot of test and tune. I'm still not ready for you guys but I would like to be part of the memorial pass to honor JPEE if you need cars.

Thanks Tony for the kind words for JPee, he was a great guy. Now you are 100 % wrong you are ready to race in the CC. This series was created for racers just like you and there is not one racer that would not show you the ropes. We all had to start some where and this is a great series to get that start.

Never had the pleasure of meeting JPEE but sounds like he was one in a million. I would like to be part of this memorial for him so count me in.

I will probably have to run on Street Tires. I have to check the belts and see if they are within the expiration date. I will try and make it even if I don't run.

Thanks Glen.
Tom, if you are coming to only drive for the memorial pass - it will be at 5-7 mph. If you plan on racing, double check the safety equipment unless you can detune. Thanks Tom

I'm seeing all kinds of different weather for Saturday. Some say rain, some say no rain. Who do we believe?
