Nick, if your heading down for just Sunday keep in mind its at least a 4 hour drive one way. I dont know about you but I couldn't handle driving 8 hours back and forth in one day.

I'm probably camping out at the track Saturday night because I know i will have a few cool ones after the event and definitely dont think I'll be in any condition to get behind the wheel to drive back to the Motel.

Thinking about setting up a sleeping bag in one of the corner workers towers

I have to pull out also. I was only signed up for Sunday but I get back home late Saturday. I feel like a knuckle head because I thought I was signing up to run at Willow Springs not ---> Button Willow

A four drive vs. a 2 hour. Have fun guy's oh and FYI if you cancel it cost you $49.00

Finish by 5pm give or take. Plus half the fun of this trip is everyone staying at the Motel 6 and socializing Fri and Sat nights. Still hope you can figure something out!

I would not bring the Chevelle just bomb down in my truck or another car so i can watch and hang out. Sounds alittle crazy but I make day trips to Bako all the time to pick up parts so I am used to the drive leaving in the AM and sometimes I have to be back at the shop to make shipping by 5pm with product I bring back so the drive and hanging out for the day is not a big deal and if I plan it right I should get a couple guys with me to split the driving if we need to.

So are you guys saying non of you are worth the drive to check out your cars and drivin in action??????

Had a buddy of mine call me yesterday about going on the 7th also and my wife overheard me saying "Maybe I can get one of the neighbors to watch the kids for me" and she about bit my head off so unfortunately the 7th with NCRC at Thunderhill is a definite no-no.
