Anyone watch the Rolex from Mid-Ohio yesterday on Speed! Man, that BMW had wings when he crashed on that last lap. The Pontiac really pissed me off. He could not get around the BMW. He kept trying, bumping, nudging... then he sent him flying. Really pissed me off. Glad the driver was OK. Six or seven end over ends was a wild ride. Two end overs in mid air.

JUST DAMN!

I am pissed too, because I thought I had it set to record on my DVR...and didn't. So I did not get to watch it.

Is that kind of like a Drool Bucket or a box of Depends? I'm a certified AARP member so being over 50 is not an issue. Hummmmm, wonder if AARP members get a discount at NASA?

maybe, but only because they expect that you will miss a session or two, because you got lost, forgot to show up, or had a bodily excretion malfunction.

RX-7s can also get the corral passes. All we ask is that you post up how many tickets you are buying/how many cars/what type of car.
Ordering info in post #1

Sounds good. Everythings done, I just haven't ordered my tickets. I saw that as I went to order and wanted to make sure it was ok.
