So, is it gonna be kartin and then dinner? Le Mans sounds like a ton of fun and should be easy to get to. Maybe we should get a total of the number of people who are goin' to make reservations and try to get a good rate. F.Y.I you have to rent protective equipment, don't know how $ that is.

Generally the safety equipment is free, but yes we should try to get a headcount and try to get a discount.

I have an Idea. Why don't we have our regular meet and dinner on Friday Night and do the Lemans racing on Saturday say around 11:00am so that way we don't have to rush time. I don't mind spending the weekend with you guys. But we need to decide soon.

No matter what happens we still meet up at our regular spot at 7:00pm on Friday. That way no one gets missled because we can always discuss whats going to happen next from the meet.

We'll see what will happen on Friday, I'd rather have everyone go then leave someone behind. We'll do our meet Friday night and wing it from there.

Anyways.... I'm busy with SlipNSlide on Saturday. ;-)
