Sounds like an offer that I would be crazy to turn down Roger. I will probably triple my 928 IQ just by hanging out with you and Sean for a weekend!!

Or make you that much more dumb about them.

Either way, it will be a fun time. Besides, I can't seem to find the time to make it back up to Wichita. My parents are not happy with that.

Neither am I. I keep waiting for you to show up and work some magic on my car for me - or at least kick back and let me buy you a beer or two!

CarChick and I have been considering a (temporary) return to Texas since the initial announcements of the race.

Come on down Roger! You don't even have to live here to get that kind of treatment! I just need a solid heads up a week or three in advance to be sure I have talent on hand!

I fully intend to be there. Hopefully they'll have a pitwalk on the Thursday. I already am planning to book hotels for every weekend in June before they announce the date to avoid the huge price inflation once the official date is announced. I figure it'll be back to back w/ the Canadian GP, either the weekend before or after.

Maybe in the months afterward they'll have a DE weekend at the track. I'd make the drive for that.

Sara and I were wanting to attend that race too. The only thing better would be to show up with a whole herd of 928's .

Meh - you'll drink it back down to normal by the end of the trip.

Howard,
Your avatar just made me an official "dirty old man" - my heart rate increased significantly and I do not know why. Let me ask Zane and get back to you 8>).

Rog, you are only a dirty old man if the girl is really young compared to your age... Sophea is about 44! UNREAL 44, but still 44! Wish I'd known her when I was still single...
