    I'm out for money reasons again. I need two sets of 275's and a good brake kit as well as money for gas.
    3 strikes and your out.
    I agree w/ Jason. We have always had a strong presence at Nationls from the very first one up to last year. I still think we have the toughest region to race in.
    I know Dan Alford was planning to go last I talked to him the week before TWS. He was planning to miss TWS due to a schedule conflict.
    I can tell you this, of the two locations Nat's has been held at, Mid Ohio is the most fun. The track, the location, the history, the poeple in the area. Food at the track is amazing. The weather is great - and expect it to rain. I liked Miller, I love Mid Ohio.

    I would love to drive up for the weekend if anyone wants to load up in the G8 and blast up there.

    Dan A, David F, and I are the only ones from TX signed up for CMC1/2.
    CMC1 will get cancelled due to lack or participants.
    I expect David F will move to CMC2.
    I'll get a refund and use the vacation time for hunting instead.

    GL,
    I throw in with you if I get my pink slip from work.
    That should happen this week.
    I need a fried German Bologna sammich and a Mike's pizza.

    PS
    Did you see the ALMS race from there last w'end?
    The rain reminded me of '08 (and '06, but mostly of '08)

    You've squawking about a layoff since 2006. They can't get rid of you.

    I'll be there as either a Race Director, or Series Director.

    Man, if you go and don't get a Mike pizza, you made a big mistake. It is only a couple miles from the track.
    I saw the race, and I thought about the same thing.
    Man, good times!

    I'm not going to be able to make it. I have business travel on the Sunday of the "big race" and have prep work leading up to the trip, so I'll try and keep up on my BlackBerry...

    Have you seen the schedule? The "Big Race" is first up Saturday right before lunch. CMC cars on the grid for the National Athem. Going to be a Kodak moment!

    Decisions, decisions, decisions...

    I am still on the fence and a broken car doesn't help.

    I have no desire to go and run way off the pace ~ and registered for CMC1 in case some of the old skool cars wanted to be the last CMC1 National Champion. I had several of you guys encourage me at TWS and I do appreciate it but I don't think the car is where it needs to be.

    I'll take it one day at a time; maybe I'll go stab the spare T56 in tonight and see if I can get more than 1 gear.

    I thinkm that the Texas Region should collect money for a fund to support any Texas Drivers that want to go represent the group and bring home some trophies. I will start by donating $100. Anyone else interested?

    Assuming only one driver goes, this could be a neat deal to get behind on an annual basis. Top points driver who is willing and able to go, no repeat recipients of the donation in a three year period, blah, blah. I'm in for $100.
