Default The HWFMR Turtle Pond at Road America, and roll call

Since the Big Turtle no longer trailers his ownself, he can't hog a significant space for the Pond.

But long time turtle Eric Cyranski (Eric in Chi) has stuck his neck out and offered to host the Pond. At least for meet and greet, libations and conviviality.

Which means the Pond will be sharing space with the big rigs like Racer's Group, Autometrics CS Motorsport and Midwest Eurosport.

Look for Eric's reserved paddock space right next to (south) the Autometrics Trailer. (space #18) There will be one, maybe even two, banners flying, so we should be easy to find.

Eric's trailer is a lavish red Haulmark with expansive awning, his car is a red 944S2 #400 with big hornets on it. My car will be with Midwest Eurosport. A black 944S2 #71 with Turtle silhouettes on it. (Did you know Turtles eat Insects?)

Joe Cooley is bringing his homebrews (rutrow), and there are rumors the Food Angel will be in attendence with her East Coast Famous cookies.

Who else will be there?

And thanks much, Eric. (In gratitude, I will try not to lap you.)

Hmm...I'm here, but I didn't see the HWFMR banner!

I even have cookies with me. (Say it with me now, "cooooooo-kieeeeeeeee")

Will try to find the HWFM paddock tomorrow to say hi! I know that the formerly-known-as-Hacker-currently-known-as-Enzo is looking for you guys, too.

Couldn't be mine. I drive in what is politely referred to as the walk group, not the run group.

I'm envious. My "season" doesn't start for three more weeks.

No, I'm at the house admiring my just washed car. I may be slow, but my car looks marvelous.

Mike, you are an *******. I wish I were there with you (and my neighbor with the 993-bodied Fabcar).

Oh, you meant the other Mike.

I'm with you, RA would be a gas. Too bad it's like 2200 miles away.
