I'm going to go up saturday morning, or maybe go out friday night and stay with my dad - anyone else in?

Hey RJ,
I am not sure which day I am going yet. Most of it depends on the weather forecast, but now Sunday looks the best.
I say go on the day with the best weather, because the better cars tend to come out then. When dealing with vintage/classic million dollar race cars, people tend to take them on track only when it is dry.
I will drop you a pm on honda tech Thursday or Friday.

I think I am going to go Sunday - Larry and Tony (T-Bag) want to go Sunday.

I'm in for Sunday Summit.
MotoGP party at Matt's par course?

J500 isn't worth the $30 IMO... but then again I've seen it all a couple years in a row so maybe I'm biased.

i'd agree, but i may feel that way for the same reason as you.
- GQROB - 05-17-2006
Kewl, looks like just about the whole crew will be there.

so, how was?
- .RJ - 05-24-2006
It was ok... definately something worth paying to see once, not sure if I'll go back next year. Rob said that the turnout had been better in past years, but I had a good time and there was some really cool vintage hardware there. Porsche 904/906's, formula fords, formula atlantics, and the like. The race groups werent very big but it was still pretty exciting to watch
