Dropped Putnam Park in IN, still no Mid Ohio or NCM. Glad there's more opportunities with other groups.

I don't see the Willow Springs event, but I have a sign up link sitting in my email. This list might not be complete.

Fixed. Willow Springs and Wild Horse Pass were named in the body of the release but not included in the list. Just moved them to the list.

Does not look to me like that S2K in the picture would pass the broomstick test.

I'm laying the game plan to attend the April 5th Atlanta event in VWguyBruce's old Challenge Metro. I'm going to rent a tow dolly to haul it up there just to make sure I get home one way or the other. I'm planning on bringing the whole family and making an evening of it.

I'm hoping to make one of the PittRace track nights. I went to one last year, and had a pretty good time.

These events are just perfect, especially for those of us with two of the tracks within 40 minutes or so. Don't even have to take time of work, show up a little early, leave a bit late a few other nights and call it even.

Oh, was that bragging Mike? I guess it maaaay have sounded that way

You seriously have to crash at my place to hit one of the Palmer full day events this year, it's an amazing amount of track time for the money.

You'll need to log in to post.
