Yeah, I'm really starting to like it lol... We really thought we wanted something smaller and the wife was really freaked out over just how huge this thing is, but I'm really getting used to driving it around and once you get it parked, the extra space inside is REALLY nice.

The power the Cummins has when pulling hills is just an added bonus, can't wait to see how it does with the car trailer behind it.

So far I've upgraded all of the audio visual equipment including the DTV dish on the roof, fixed some electrical issues and some plumbing issues...now I'm working on getting the slide covers replaced and possibly upgrading the backup camera to a color version. They are just like a house really, all kinds of systems to upkeep and repair.

I sure wish I was going! I love Bowling Green. I lived there for one year, then had to move back to Cali...but I still love it. I still own and rent out a house there...about 10 mins from the track.

I'll be back there in September for LS Fest.

I drove on the NCM track a few months back when I was in town. Its a really awesome track...should make for an awesome event!

I haven't booked a room yet and Im thinking camping at the track sounds like a good idea. I just have a tent, no fancy RV or anything, but has worked out ok in the past.

Sweet, are you going to be running your GN with us?

From everything I hear, the facility is top notch in every aspect. I can't wait to see it in person.

HoosierPE Crew will be there with our shop Pontiac TA. Looking forward to meeting lots of new people and have a great time!

See you all very soon,
Jason and HoosierPE

Unfortunately no GN. I'll be in a blue C5 Corvette. No camping on the grounds in a tent this year either, I called today and they don't have their shower houses built yet. They said there's still some construction going on and showers are not finished. Sounds like plenty of Hotels nearby.

Day one is in the books... Had a blast, fantastic site, car did great, driver did okay... Day two is just about under way...road course day.

Here are my best runs in the speed stop and autocross, the speed stop isn't that great of a time but I think the autocross was pretty good for my car anyway. I haven't seen the results after the afternoon sessions yet.

I'm glad you're enjoying the event Lance! USCA runs a very good event - and the key is to have fun.

I used to think the Brake Stop was kind of lame (not much more than a good way to flat spot your tires) -- but now that I'm tracking my own cars -- I know for certain that it will show weakness in your cars set up and brakes. So I respect it now.
