I'd rather be like Danica anyway as she rarely finishes high and hits everything on the track except the finish line.

I'll drive, and you just build lowriders.
Dale Jr. the best part of him was a stain on the sheet.

I have taken a different view of taking your car to the track with a truck and trailer now----I would rather drive the car to the track or course--but it's a pain to have it towed 200+ miles on a flatbed.

Time to get the truck back in shape----geez, mo expenditures.
That Texarkana Silverado special has been paid for since 1999. If it blows up on the grapevine, leave it for dead and you are still ahead of the game.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

I'm new to all this track stuff.... and just finished the Bondurant 4 day Grand Prix course (I've taken others as well)...

Their big track configuration is 1.6 miles and 15 turns.... I was running that in 1.16

I have no idea what that means or how it compares. Do you?

Back to your regular scheduled program.

What will be the fastest time this year in our group? Last year it was a 2:14.1

I'm thinking 2:10-2:12.

Here's the track configuration and a Porsche running a 2:11 lap.

Todd, you reminded me of the other purchase I would like to make before this event, a Go Pro-----

Any suggestions on which model and which accessories? Is everybody using the same model?
