Made our reservation and at a very good rate for Chateau Elan. Yet another reason to look forward to Spring. Is there anything happening at Road Atlanta during this weekend?

May 5th and 6th are Panoz Racing School Track Days at Road Atlanta.

We'll swing by Road Atlanta sometime Saturday afternoon for a quick "look-see" and perhaps a group photo.

If you're interested in participating at the Track Days, browse: http://www.panozracingschool.com/Tra...uidelines.aspx

Out of curiosity, do you guys know of any Shark owners in the Savannah area? I know a 928 owner that is talking to a company about a job in the Savannah area......

I'm trying to decide if I can come out for a day or the weekend. maybe I just won't stay over. It sounds like a good outing.

Actually, checking to see if the spouse wants to go...the tech seminars, and Road Atlanta just don't seem to interest her. If not....then I'm definitely coming....Ha ha.

I guess I have to decide soon.

Default AFTER LOOKING FORWARD TO IT ALL THIS TIME . . .

Just had to cancel reservation at Chateau Elan...

Potential new biz opportunity interview must trump Shark time, as painful as it is. Hope to meet up at next event. SITM still on the list, tho!
Send my regards to Jack Swint. Looks like a great event is planned...

Perhaps a Shark Treffen gtg at the10th Anniversary of the Petit Le Mans in October, if not before...

2007 Petit Le Mans
