Please respond immediately via PM.
The weather looks questionable at best for our rental on Friday; however, we do have Monday as our rain date.
Some of our fellow racers have booked hotels in advance and have a cancellation policy.
We do have people traveling from as far as Florida.
I would much rather move the date to our rain date based on the current weather forecast.
Monday has a much better barometric pressure, % precipitation, and temp forecasted.
I'm looking to see if everyone is up for moving the date now as a courtesy to those traveling.
I'm looking to give the track an answer by tomorrow noon.
TIA

Just stopping by to see who of any of the old crew is still around.
Good to see some familiar names, Gary, Rob etc.

Hope it's an awesome day out! I'd stop by but the wife is gone this week and I have the animals.

good to see you still come around here. Would be cool to see you out sometime.


Last time you were here, I was still using Capthuff, but I changed my user name to better align with the rest of my online profile.

Would have been great to see you.
Been such a long time.
Honestly, the main reason I keep this an annual event is to see my old friends.
Perhaps next year.

Bought a Winter house in SW FL and pass by you on the way there. Usually take 10 from Jax and run 301 down to Gainesville.
Have to stop by for a cold one on a future trip.

I sold the C5 to a forum buddy in FL and he lets me drive it once in a while when I miss it.
Latest project is a '67 GTO restomod with a TX Speed LS7 (675hp) T56 mag 6 speed manual, Moser M9 with 3.73, Wilwood disc brakes X4, and QA1 full suspension with coilovers.
Such a fun ride.

Weather is looking fantastic for tomorrow.
DA should be negative all day long.
There appears to be ample sun to keep the track warm.
There should be a quartering slight wind that won't affect us.
The first 60' will be radial prep which is very tight.
Since they are racing today, the starting line should be awesome.
This does not mean that any of us should try to rotate the earth but matching your power to the conditions will yield great results.
Meeting at the top of the track at my car will commence around 9:00 am.
Stickers to race will be handed out then.
See you guys there.

Glad everyone made it.
Great day for seeing my friends.
Congrats to all who have set new PBs.
There were many.

Luis- As for a 10.9x, that did not happen but.................
Glad to see you again.
Always good to catch up.
We both learned a little something about the TR6070; at least mechanically.
