Half way through Saturday we had fixed a few issues with the car and helped the Daytona stay on track. By the end of the night, we had learned a bunch, met a lot of really great people and even got invited to do a photo shoot. I also learned who Danny Popp was, his and Marks name were constantly circling the crowds.
It's hard to set rules and define a class. The two groups, A and B, seemed to separate the fast and the really fast cars. Streetable? Any car can be streetable. I've got a buddy who races a street roadster at Bonneville. This year he ran 219mph backwards through the 4 mile, two weeks later he was at a cruise night.
All I can hope for in future events is that it's not just high end cars. I'm not talkin beaters, but well built non race cars...hard to define I guess... Make it so the Pipefitter with two kids and a F'ed up mortgage can come and have fun, just sayin.

What a great weekend, one of the coolest events we've ever been a part of! We had a blast! Hope we can make it down next year, brotha!
