Maybe I'll make up some yellow wristbands to show support for Tampa rolling up into TWS... I personally guarantee that none of us will be doping. Greek may have too much hair product, but that hasn't been proven yet to be a performance enhancement.

Running at TWS today track is great, weather just perfect, temps good, sky clear. Thats my limit on unfair tactics for the day. Btw where do I get those yellow bands?

Livestrong Foundation is selling them cheap. You have to turn them inside out though.

I know there is enough room for our four cars and spare wheels in the rig but are we sure there is enough counter space for Greeks grooming products?

TWS is open track, right? Put in three or four thirty minute runs; pack up and get to COTA by 5 sounds perfect.

That's the general plan just get the cars and drivers a little track time, heat cycle any new tires, basically one day to have fun and get ready for three more days of fun. Hm whats not to Like about that plan.

Bingo boingo. I'll start leaning on the car hauler tomorrow to finalize this.

I think you guys will really enjoy TWS, and yeah, run as much as you can until mid afternoon, then clean up & do your hair, and tow over to COTA.

We are officially out with regards to TWS.

Issues with our transporter and changing the schedule. We would lose our driver if we added the two extra days due to a conflict with the driver's schedule. They were working on a plan B driver, but that was a little sketchy...

See you guys at COTA!

Not for a lack of trying....

At least we're going to COTA. Unlike some other lamo's that are staying in Florida to drive Sebring for 1000th time.

Sebring never gets old.

October - February is reserved exclusively for Sebring, never missed a Winterfest or 48hours or the 3 Chin events leading up to Winterfest.

You might be fine in Austin, but with the crazy weather, I try to stay in Florida until at least March.

I'll check out COTA another time, very thempting but with those crazies cancelling etc. I just locked in easy peasy Sebring.

I've had enough Sebring for a while. Got my fill. Would rather go to Roebling, VIR, or RA instead, but less frequently. Sebring is starting to feel like ground hog day. Plus, the 70 car run groups at the 48 is a tad over crowded.

WF will always be on my list though. Shame about the drag races this year.

Drag races will be back next year.

Come to Road Atlanta in February and run SuperSolo!
