I'm feelin' a little better...It might be a game-time decision for me, but I'll probably head down. Let you know for sure as it draws closer.

How 'bout my Heels beating the State University of NJ!?!

YUP….. Looking good now.
I guess Mother Nature is finally giving us a break.

Scooter,
Stop over to “Shawn’s Auto wash” tonight…… Two bays…No waiting.

I hope the roads are dry in the morning so it doesn’t get all slopped up on the way there tomorrow.

Shawn S

PS….. For those who ordered the Zaino mixing bottles, don’t forget your 17-bucks for me.
I’ll be bringing them for delivery tomorrow.

AND……How about putting a “reminder post” over in the CAR TALK section in case some locals have forgotten about this.

Sorry about this 1 more tip....i know most of us are already doing this, but make sure there's a nice coat of wax otherwise you could have a very good chance of rubber sticking to your car. Now i know this is kinda gross but if you take some vaseline and get inside the wheel wells and a lil on the outside it prevents melted rubber from getting onto your paint. All you have to do is wipe it off when you're done. Just a random pointer from me.

If there’s a TAILWIND should we run with our trunks open for some added boost?

Hoist the main sail matey.

Good thought but i think you'd need about 100 mph tail wind in order to negate the effects of foward motion no? In that case, you'll want to keep going cause whatever is causing a 100mph tailwind can't be good.

I got a fucking flat tire tonight so I won't be able to run tomorrow. Oh well, I'm catching a ride with a fellow TL member. See you all there.

Woo, just got back from the track (Real far, 5 minute drive haha) ... Was a ton of fun! My best 1/8 time was 9.697 ... too bad they didn't let us run 1/4s!! I have a bunch of pictures to post up, but I probably wont be able to until I get back home (Virginia) on Sunday.

Was a lot of fun and I was glad to have met so many cool people! Can't wait to do it again!!!! (Except in WARMER weather)

BTW- Props to Scooter for organizing this whole thing!
