I wanna know what this catch can is, and I'm not even old enough to qualify.

I will be checking the mailbox with anticipation for the next few days, since tickets shipped out yesterday.

I don't think I've ever wanted to go to the "Barber" this much!

While cleaning up my hard drive at work, I discovered some video I shot at the Barber Grand Am last year. I'll see if I can put some of it together and post it for a preview of what's to come... on a smaller scale!

I bet there is a certain video from March 2004 that a few people would still like to see.

since you have to be 50 to get one, that means it must be to control something brought on by being old. maybe it is more like a catch bag, like they make the horses wear in Savannah, to keep them from crapping on the street.

I just got home today and there was a large manila envelope in the mailbox. I got my tickets today!!! Plain envelope from B'ham. I'm so excited! I just can't hide it!

Plus, there is a new installment of the Grand Am Cup adventure online.

Got my tickets in the mail today also. Saturday/Paddock/Car Corral! Yahooooo, bring it on!

Anyone going to get there early enough to watch the Go Karts on Saturday Morning? I'd really like to see them run.

FINALLY!


My ticket package showed up today.

The wife played a mean trick, hands the mail to me, with no tickets. I was getting pissed about the time she pulled them from her bag. I was not as amused as she was.

Now the wait. Although, the next couple weeks are pretty busy, so that will help.

OK, I'm leaving the house at 6:00 AM. Where do you want to meet up with me. I'll be heading down I-85 to I-285 then west to I-20. I will not take me but 20 to be at Jimmy Carter Blvd.
