You guys are insane.

If you can keep that schedule, stay mostly on the track, drive at some sort of pace on the track, and not drive into a ditch on the interstate then more power to you.

The only thing that will hold up is the automobile used on the track. Good luck with the rest.

Let us know how it goes.

Deputy... The trailer is not the problem....it's getting the time off. TrakCar and Izzone, you guys get an amazing amount of time off. Have a blast and full report each night..ok?

Might be worth a flight up to the Glen just to watch you guys run. Sounds like a fun!

Ok the misses and I are going into negotiations like the NFL labor talks. I definitely won't be able to make the whole trip but mid Ohio and watkins glen could become a reality and knock 2 tracks off the bucket list
All I need is a ton of red bulls and sunflowers seeds to make it to new York on time after driving mid Ohio for 3 days and not leaving there till 6 or 7pm. I'm sure the drivers meeting at Watkins glen will be at least 8am that very next day

Agreed. Totally doable. If you're not the one driving

I work remotely all the time with an air card. Windows RDC is amazing. Can't believe it's free and part of the software package.

Two cars, piles of RA1, sets of brake pads, spare rotors, oil for mid trip oil change, brake fluid for mid trip brake bleed

My deatil guy will be real happy when I come back with 10 track days of rubber ball marks and bugs
