I'm going to be there the 23rd-25th. It's at Mid-Ohio, so I don't want to miss the opportunity. Plus, it's my friend Rob Warkocki's 30th year racing and his 30th Runoffs, so I want to be there.

Looks like a couple of other GRMers are already planning on being there.

Look for the GRM booth near the tower. And once we're on site, we'll confirm our location.

I'll be there and in the Mazda tent. #47 EP RX7. It's now mostly white after my rebuild from my crash at NJMP in July. Stop and say hello.

Our region has 4 members going. Two I'm sorta friends with, one of them is my MR2 friend that sold me the SC MR2 for dirt cheap. He races Friday and I'm trying to figure out vacation time to see him, otherwise going to try for Saturday.

I am going to try and make it Saturday at least. The Run Offs are some of the best racing to watch.

I've just cleared it with bossette, I'm going up Wednesday to watch my friends qualify at least. Thinking it'll be less crowded and maybe I can hang out with them in the pits/paddock whatever.

Gonna stop down to check out the STL/STU and EP races and try and meet a few of you and stop by the GRM camp.

Anyone want to meet at our tent for lunch on Saturday? Everyone brings their own lunch and we can brown-bag together?

It looks like we are going to Ky to the Mammoth Caves instead. Oh well.

Spent about 5 hours there yesterday, amazed at the infrastructure that had popped up (it was like being in a downtown city with so many trailers/rv's/tents).

But a first glance impression was...no one knows anything. No matter what question I asked, and to whom (volunteer/worker/driver/spectator) I always got "hm I don't really know". Where's the Toyota tent? When does the lunch break end? Where is the vending area? Can I photograph from that wall? (I literally had to ask 4 SAFETY PEOPLE at that wall before someone said yes and not "I don't know, ask him over there")

Well I will definitely be there the whole weekend. I would be willing to have lunch at the GRM tent on Saturday. I'll be hanging out down at the Mazda tent. I also have a camping spot reserved so if someone wants to camp they can.

Maybe that Mustang doing donuts took it out?

We're setting it up Saturday morning, and we'll be near the tower. We should be easy to find.

Come on by for some trick or treating. No costume necessary.

So looking at the video from the Tom Sloe incident, what was the fallout? Can't believe someone would stop on track and wait for a competitor and try to wreck them on purpose.

I'm curious myself. Had a friend record it on her cell and post to Facebook. So NASCAR.

Here's fan video posted on Facebook:

Hope it works...

Sloe is reported to have immediately received a one-year suspension from the club and there is the possibilty for more. This wasn't the first time he's beat on competitors with dubious intentions and suffered the same penalty.
