Id pay for the suit, make Mary Kay breakfast afterwards, and pay for race gas in that "decent" race car!

(Still racing the fastest, oldest, original stock engine'd race car in the world with a 6 year old alignment, and used tires!

Pffttt. You already did the first part, didn't you? As for the second part, I didn't know you were into necrophilia.

Sounds about right. Was that on slicks?

mk

Only 1 person in WC TC was faster than 2:05.2 in this years race (Randy Pobst). Yes on slicks, but on a the stock 1990s suspension (ie no spring or shock changes...and it is soft at ~600f/~800r), have no wing, no splitter, stock gearing, etc, etc etc. Power to weight is not the only way to compare cars.

Pretty acrimonious today, aren't we? I guess that with no GR to beat up on for a couple of weeks, you're bound to get grumpy.

I thought you'd already done that for free when you were in College.

Yeah, well you got a pretty good look at how quickly I can hop around Road Atlanta. A good long look as I remember.

Are you going to Daytona again?

The bunny ears kept distracting me!

Yes, we are headed back to Daytona. Karl Poeltl is debuting his 996 C stock car and Greg Pickrael, Tim Sanderson, Rod Johnson and Dennis O'Keefe have already registered in C. Chris Dooley is still in B w/X51 engine. He's going to decide what to do after PCA announces classes for '08.

Should be fun, I'll need a "Herminator Pit Strategy" to win and try not to pass under caution this year!

I am headed to Road America along with Chris next. Never been there and we're looking forward to the weekend events.
