Hey Dr, I'm signed up... just waiting for my brake pads and brake fluid to get here. You going?

BTW, if you are going.... suggest getting there before the gate opens (@ noon), to ensure you have a paddock/covered parking spot.

I'm thinking of going, last time the night DE @ Homestead was great.

I think you're OK with the cab, doesn't it have the pop-up roll bars?

So, do you guys think we'll wrap up before the TS hits S. FL? Last I heard was that it would be close - get here around Saturday.

I'm bailing because of storm, Homestead track is not a good place when it rains hard, I've been there when the tunnels were completely filled with water.

Wayne, stop by the beach on your way home, I'll have the bottle ready for you.

Weather looks touch and go at this point. At least Tropical Storm Bonnie is gone, but the issue is whether there will be residual T-storms (forecasted 30-60% as of now). I"m going to play it by ear and if it's not raining tomorrow I'm definitely going.

As for the popup roll bars, yes, I have them....so I should be OK.
