It was a fantastic weekend!! Many thanks to Pat and all the organizers, the army of volunteers, the PCA National Team and the especially sponsors (especially the sponsor of the beer cart). The registration and grid teams were superbly organized! Even though the paddock space was tight, I really appreciated the general respect for masks and social distancing. Really missed the BBQ dinner from prior years but the box dinner we excellent too. I hadn't been to the track since the repave but it felt good right away, like a grown up Lime Rock. Really enjoyed running in the Vintage Group this year in my little 2.0L car which tried to hold its own throughout the race weekend against the bigger motors and fatter tires.

It was pretty cold in the morning on grid but I'm glad the weather held up! It was my first time working Grid and it was an awesome experience.
Nice job @thelittlemrs and the rest of the team for putting it all together. See everyone next year!

PS - Those ribs were awesome (I had an entire rack to myself)

Pat and her team absolutely crushed it this year! The level organization, the amount of volunteers and all the little details, including the mobile/social distancing happy hours, were truly impressive. Made me proud to be a Potomac member. Kenny, the grid team was awesome!! Huge thanks to Pat & Donna and to the 100+ volunteers. Weather didn't suck either!!

And I agree with Luigi, the cup car group had some great, level headed racing. I had a blast and its got me wanting to race more.

The whole event was really great! Well planned and well done. Thanks to all the volunteers and especially to Pat and Donna! My former peers on the grid did a great job as always.

"And I agree with Luigi, the cup car group had some great, level headed racing. I had a blast and it's got me wanting to race more." Bman don't poke the bear, we've finally got him being nice to us.

Great weekend and thank you to Potomac and all the volunteers for their great work. This is really one of my favorite events of the year and again this year we had a great group of G cars attending. Extra points this year for the awesome weather, too.

Did you guys circulate a picture of me among all the Cup car drivers? I got "are you Luigi and why are you ragging on Cup cars all the time?" several times over the weekend.

Huge kudos to the organizers and everyone involved in this fantastic event. Just superb organization and execution. A great big shout out to the corner workers for an outstanding job. While there has been some well documenmted " uneveness" in corner worker attention this season. The summit workers were a world apart and above. I have never seen so many attentive, pristinely white dressed souls in one place ( except , possibly, while under mild anethesia, waiting for my colonoscopy...). at each flag stand. and attentive they were. At one point, following a routine spin in T5 a guy jumped out onto the grass, franticallly waving a yellow looking like forest gump on steroids, .. i almost locked the brakes!! great job!!
