    Had a few setbacks with the rehabilitation. So riding in the car for 11 hours and then trying to walk around just seems to be pushing it a bit.

    I was really looking forward to it given the number of folks we know and the possibilities of some very credible attempts at records. Guess I'm going to have to forgo my "Beck's Bitchs" T-shirt. LOL.

          Teaching a teen car control clinic, a student hit me, broke my back, concussed, cuts, scraps, screwed up.

          I guess we need to spend more time on differentiating the brake from the gas...

              Bob - sorry to hear this. Evidently it's true that no good deed goes unpunished.

              Scott - we GOTTA have dinner together at B'ville! You know where to find me. I need more of your interesting tales.

                Sounds like a plan...Now if I can just get someone to overnight some salt it'll be just about like being there (NOT!!) LOL.

                    I'm getting in late late Friday night, like 1 or 2am saturday morning. But I'll be working on the car most of Saturday, we might run late Saturday or early Sunday. Our fir run or two will be on the Special or Short courses. You have my mobile number, call it when you are ready to hook up.

                      I'm off work starting that Friday. So if Lee needs anything Friday or such I'm around. Probably be spending the day final prepping the POS trailer. I cleaned all the junk I piled in there (loads of tools) for moving to the new house and swept it out and check all the lights for functionality. Found an active wasps nest in there! Got that taken care of. I may have to go to work one day, like Tuesday or Wedsnesday, but shouldn't be too bad. May leave the trailer at the bend and hope no one runs off with it

                        I was always going to Bonneville (working as a tech inspector) but I wasn't going to take the race car this year.

                        Well last night the wife said, "hell, were driving up there anyways, might as well take the car". That's what you want to hear from your sponcer!
                        Woo Hoo
                        Stop by and see us if you're on the salt folks.

                            We'll miss you Gary. Maybe we'll see you with another racer in the future. No one can just walk away from the salt.....

                            And Thanks!

                              Does anyone know how much the day pass is? And if they are cheaper for kids? I know some people that are interested but I've never bought anything but the week long pass

                                I don't recall the day price Randall. Think it's $10? Go to the SCTA web site, I think the info is there.
