I just started in DE in May of this year. Living in S. Florida allows me to attend Sebring monthly. Plan on DE's monthly all year (if the Cayman holds up ; > )

Racing? I just want to keep my home. That's the plan for the next year or so.

If this year in real estate is any indication, I should have a banner year for 2010. Too bad I'm saving up for a new kitchen, too.

Its looking a long way away at this point; just finished up some end of season maintenance.
Can't wait 'til Spring (but first, some skiing).
And you?

Now that the car is done, I'm planning on competing in the full PRC spec 911 season next year with some PCA races to fill in the gaps.

Better than last year, surprisingly enough; that's because a) I didn't get much racing in at all this year, by choice to build the new car, and b) because the new car is coming along somewhat faster than expected, recently, with major bits coming together quickly. Still have to just run out and buy a bunch of new stuff, like belts, fire system, shocks, etc, but there's even a glimmer of hope she might see the track at the beginning of the season! Original expectations were that we'd be lucky to have her out once before the end of the season.

Probably still won't run a full season, between running and development costs... but that's OK. If I were flush with cash, I'd tag on enough Nationals to make it to the Runoffs, would be great fun, but just can't plan on it... might get one National in, though, if things are going well with the car and performance and reliability are as we might hope (not to mention takeoff tire supply!)
