Once I saw that the enduros don't finish until late Sunday afternoon I knew I could not run it.

What is the criterion for the Worker's Choice award? You could try buying them lunch and or send a shill to their table to say how great it is to be on track with that guy in the red boxster.

It looks like I will make it!

Doug: I will be solo all weekend so I talked to your SpeedwerksNY guys and they are going to help through the weekend on the radio and in Sunday's enduro.

This is actually my first ever race at VIR and my first ever enduro... Looking forward to it even though not so excited about the 8-hour pull...

I should be available for help in the other group even if it is just holding a fire bottle...

Anyone have a spare set of radios or know where I can rent some for the weekend? My car is wired for Moto handsets.

My 10-year old son decided he wants to come this weekend and help out. Which means he has discovered Race Monitor and wants to tell me how I am doing.

Any leads appreciated.

Mark,
I may be able to help with the radios. Come by and see me Thursday after 6pm or Friday morning.
Large double car trailer with Texas flag flying over it. SPEC 996's, #'s: 204 & 402.
My 13 year old son will be there as well.

Bryan, thanks. I'll give you a ring when I get there. Maybe the boys can occupy themselves while we play.

Looking forward to comparing H performance to some spec cars.

Awesome event and great racing! Great to see and race some of the previous competitors, and even better to meet so many more PCA racers.

Doug, always great to race and hang out with you and the rest of the folks. We ran almost identical fastest lap in the Enduro (by .001)!!!

Finished my first ever enduro. Could barely make it, but Lesson Learned : Do not race enduros without a drink bottle and a kool suit. Ordering both this week! And after all that, all I get is a sticker???? LOL... Just kidding... Ok... Maybe I was a little dissapointed...

Thank's to all the National, regional, and local staff for a great event. Volunteers and track staff rocked.
