anyone from the uk want to go and share car/room costs try hotwire you'll get a suite/room for less than $40 a night , and a car for less than $15 a day Thanks for that Ian, although the car prices don't include the CDW, good for rooms though, plus i think i might've found a big hairy gearbox builder to go with

I'll be driving out friday with two of my brothers. We'll be taking my WRX due to the high gas prices, so if you see me, say "HI"! Here's what my WRX looks like:

Talked to my sister today who lives about 20 mins. from the track and she told me there was 60% chance of rain Oct. 5th... Man I hope the forecast changes during the week.

I was talking to Cindy the other day and mentioned "Wouldn't it be just hilarious if it rained Vegas weekend?" She looked at me with a scowl!
Weather.com is calling for sunny skies and high 80s as of midnight tonight (Sep27)
We'll be leaving right after work on Thursday, and roll through the night for the 400 mile tow. Should be there Friday morning in very early AM

Any of you who come from the other side of the big water, be sure to stop and introduce yourself either at our pit space or in the lanes. Just don't be too put out if I can't talk after we've strapped in for our run! I'll try and catch up with you later in that case.
Adele, we may need some of that sunny weather. Looks like scattered thunderstorms on Saturday, but still sunny for Sundays show.

Hey Mike, I did try and get over but Susy and i seemed to have our backsides glued to our seats waiting in line to be called all day !! Well done on the Win i did manage to get down and see the final Adele Any of you who come from the other side of the big water, be sure to stop and introduce yourself either at our pit space or in the lanes. Just don't be too put out if I can't talk after we've strapped in for our run! I'll try and catch up with you later in that case.

Thanks Adele!
I saw Susy there at the motorhome when I was talking to Mike. I reckon we'll meet another day. I hope you enjoyed yourself aside from the waiting.
