Ok, ALL of you guys have to do me a favor. My good friend, Kenny Nielsen (obnoxiously yellow GT3 with matching graphics on the trailer) is there racing. Please make it a point to say hello to him and ask him if he knows me. Tell him that you heard that he never beat me when I had my GT3. After about the 4th or 5th person it should be pretty funny! Plus he is a good guy to meet and a real riot.

Sorry to miss out on this race. Family issues prevented me from coming. I'll look forward to mixing it up next season with you guys in G. Have fun this weekend.

I heard someone hit a deer during the first session, any confirmation on that?

1st I heard about it, all seems to be going very well down here and the weather is even cooperating. Paolo made great strides and with the help of his ever-professional crew chief he had the second fastest time in F in the 3rd and final practice today! Due (I assume) to the lowish turnout there is actually a separate qualifying run tommorrow for the Sprint..

I saw a groundhog twice during the same run in the carousel I did not hear about a deer either.

One of our guys hit a deer in the early Green Sprint practice. Minor damage to the left front fender, but he was back in action quickly and didn't miss a session. I had to leave a little early this PM, but as of when I left the day was running well with some good times in all classes. Paolo is picking it up quickly, especially since Gary has told him not to bother picking the wild berries that grow beyond T2.

After Tony gave us the old " my boost wasn't working, I was on old Hoosiers, and my dog ate my homework " excuses...... He proceded to go out and have the best lap in F all day...

Got here late today - 1st run at 1:30. Spindle from rear axle snapped off. Got lucky and didn't hit anything.

Burger just happened to have a new 1/2 shaft - was actually Scotto's. Thanks Jeff, Thanks Bob.

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Track is in terrible condition. I feel like I'm off roading on t-1 and at the end of the chute. Makes me want to race my SUV.

Why can't they fix this track and make West Virginia proud
