Thanks Erik,

Have you made arrangements for extra skins for Daytona or are you going to drive up blast around then drive back which I am begining to think is the correct route.

Cheers

Thanks for the offer but the aformentioned girls have me busy with LAX and some other family stuff. I do look forward to hearing the tall tales from the weekend. I am very confident many will be simply unbelievable. Fast forward a few years and you will feel both my joy and pain.

Cheers.

Hey Peter, Does your lap time still count if you cross the start/finish line upside down, sliding backwards and in flames?

....cuz that's the only way i'm gonna turn a 1:59

The bus stop will definitely be optional for my student if he doesn't back off early in his 500hp V10 M5.

Driving down on my trusty RA1's, but just like last year I have Bob Woodman bring a spare set of tires in case they don't make it. Will just need someone to take them home for me if I don't need them. Probably just throw them into Brian's or Peter's trailer. :-)

Sorry Rich, you'd never use them. How many track days so far this year ?. The last set of fronts I gave you probably dry rotted

I am bringing an extra set of unmounted 25% used R888's so we should have spares if someone runs out of tires..Loading up the trailer Wednesday if anyone needs to throw stuff in there leaving Boynton on Thursday noon, we have some room for extra wheels etc.

I have been looking at video of Daytona and I will run a similator to practice maybe Thursday night, maybe I can get used to the 170MPH + virtually first
One of my customers is going to Daytona to practice for the 24 hours in a posche so maybe I'll go up and check it out a couple of days early.

Christian, we do not have a good kart dealer in South Florida otherwise I would set you up, but I think no shop will be pleased if you show up with someone else's chassis.
The track support and driver training is the most important when you get into karting.

Our factory race team and maybe a dealer or 2 will come to the wintertour, if you want to hang in our hospitality tent and learn what's what, you are welcome (I always hang out in yours after all ;-) but no local shop unfortunately.

Karting in Florida?
Think Tony Kart.....Andre Martins Tony Kart USA
Think Advanced Karting....Donald Formal (his son Danny is one of the top Juniors in the USA)
(if you prefer something different from Tony Kart green, there is always a Kosmic or Alonso kart (Tony Karts painted very attractive shades of blue)

Disclaimer: my son is on a Maranello RS7
