absolutely! I think an overnight layover in LA is a requirement

Concierge at Oakwood in Tokyo: Andrew-san, you appear to be rather haggered and very tired.
Andrew: Yes ma'am. I did 10 hours straight of a full motion racing sim, please show me to my apartment so I might sleep for 3 days.

Was a fast track decided on? I don't know that I will make tomorrow with it being Halloween, but if the weather sucks here and the kids are done early its always a possibility. So I may as well practice tonight.

Last I heard was LMP at Road America, but not sure if that is final. I should be there tomorrow night.

Sweet. Works for me. I have it and don't think I have ever raced it.

Did some testing last night and ran a 1:57.06 before I was called away by the wife. Im sure I could get into the low 1:56 or high 1:55's. Im really interested to see what our good drivers can do. There are so many spots I am finding that Im just not pushing the car hard enough, and when I do its amazing how well it sticks. What an awesome car, we should do it again.

Its supposed to be in the 30's here tonight, so Im hoping everyone wants to come in early and I can join you guys.
