Thanks for leaving me off the list Jim. CCW 1a This will be fun. Breaking 2:00 will be a BIG task for any of us. Wish I could do a cage by then. I'll be up there next weekend racing the Lemons, LCS #7 will be a blast. I hope we get a better turnout than we had at Streets.

Btw, SCCA members don't forget to show the office your SCCA card to exempt any gate fees at Buttonwillow.

Glad you can make it. I never heard from you regarding streets so... get your cage done if you can . Jim

I won't be arriving until Wednesday night. I am picking up Doc Bundy and driving straight to Buttonwillow. You should rearrange your meetings and stay for the competition. Apply everything you learned the day before.

Oh how I wish it were that easy...lol. One thing the economy has done is make those of us still with jobs work about 4 times harder. Not really complaining, very thankful I get to whine about my lack of track days in a time like this - but, yeah it's been rough at work. Hopefully there's some light at the end of the tunnel

Unhappy rough in advertising

Having worked for Kaz's agency doing V.O.'s,( IBM tv spots)I can concur,
Ad's are down 30 to 40 % on Network TV. Makes it tough for everyone

It looks like the highs are going to be near 100º for the next two days at Buttonwillow

For those of you going to the track day tomorrow: stay cool and hydrated... I'm bummed that I won't be able to make it...

It should also be mentioned that in light of the HOT weather and corresponding schedule change, we will be running the more familiar configuration of 13CW.

Be happy, Andy - you probably would have blown your motor up in the heat. I'm concerned about mine, for sure.
