I'll be there... for the banquet. For the first event since I started racing with NASA in August of 2003, the #91 AI car won't be entered. It's really weird for me not to be getting the car ready.

As for you not attending the banquet, "Got to work on the race car..."??? Excuse me? Don't forget to wash your hair and do your nails while you are at it. For a single guy with no kids, that would be the ultimate in lame excuses even if the next event wasn't months away. :roll:

If you don't want to go and are looking for excuses to toss out, at least make them good. Something like: "I'm terrified that Todd is going to screw up the model deal and show up in drag to try and make up for it." You know, something we can sympathize with. :D

I have a short block for you Richard.

Let me know if you are interested.

My decision to not attend Houston in February was made long ago.
Can't help that the banquet date and location were moved. The mere mention of a "winter blast" locks down the whole state...

How about Houston is too fucking far to drive and I don't feel like spending $300 in gas/lodging and food to NOT be racing. Not to mention that YES, I am afraid of Todd showing up in drag.


Besides, I just picked up two pups today and will be close to home with them for a few weeks. Great dogs but only 10 weeks old.

Overall, I don't think there is going to be a full season of racing any way so there is NO real hurry to return to racing any time soon. I proved what I wanted to myself and that's enough for now. Right now I am planning on Eagle's Canyon (if it actually happens!), TWS and maybe one Houston event to try and qualify for Nationals....but budgets have been severely shrunk. I can't take this sponsorship deal until my divorce is final which I don't see being done for several more months. I think I can safely say I am never getting married again...atleast not in TX... :(

OK, but $300 is complete bunk. If you aren't bringing the car, you could ride with someone who is. Camp out or share a room with someone. Bring some food with you. You are still going to eat whether you are here or there. It doesn't have to be more expensive just because you are away from home.

Now that's a much better excuse. Have fun with them... :)
