Had a great time last year, plus the track has been repaved. I'll have to try the C5. Plus it helps out a good charity.

Yes. I drove it several times last year top down.

There was an SSR last year pacing each group. 10 or so cars go, then 10 or so motorcycles go. You might get in a fast group and you might not. But it's an experience either way.

Done this last year and had a blast! Fun driving it with the C5, and thanks again to Val for the ride in his Z! Hopefully I can make it again this year.

I usually go to the night race every year it would be nice to watch the race on the 25th and then run a few laps on the 8th.

Oh if it's my weekend to have Heath do they allow car seats.

16-18 hour days. If it was just shooting the race it'd probably be okay, but I have to be there for practices, qualifying, the races, features outside the rack, features inside the track. Barely time to eat. Sounds like a great job, but last August I walked on one day enough times around the track to log 12-15 miles. Had trouble walking the next day......and for several days beyond. Trust me, it's not all it's cracked up to be!
