Mark & Larry, you guys are making me want to install a 2nd video camera in my car pointing backwards so that I can see your race.
(Jerry, how's that smack talk?)

Brian,
If you are gonna run sub 44 in a 44 you better get a hook on the front of your car. Maybe Mike will let tag along for 1 lap?
I think a 924S may have a better chance a breaking 44. Second weekend on new suspension, made a few tweeks and fresh 17" rubber being delivered by Bob Woodman.

You can just aim the camera a little high and get them in your rear view mirror. That's how I used to film you!

Mark,
Personally I wouldn't mess with Larry. Last time I raced him was in the Daytona enduro two years ago. I was about 20 minutes ahead of him and somehow he still won the race. I think he might be sleeping with the timing guy!

It snowed in parts of town today.
No weather forecast more than two days out can be trusted. Hell, they're lucky if they get tomorrow right more than 50% of the time.
It will most likely low 60s and partly cloudy.
One thing you can all definitely count on; there will be races at Road Atlanta this weekend and someone will be drinking free beer Saturday night.

Brian, one thing I can say about the new car is: I haven't spun it yet.
Randy, I saw the snow today too. three years ago I was sitting on the false grid at the club race and saw the same thing. Great for the engine, not so great for the tires. I take it you aren't racing your new car?
Jim: I've seen the timing and scoring guys at road atlanta. If Larry wants to win that bad, he can have it!

No racing for me. Car is waiting for it's driver to get ready.
Your car looks almost too nice to race but, it is a 996 and Too nice and 996 is rarely seen in the same sentence. They were made for Club Racing.
Enjoy and good luck. See you this w/e.
