Steve I'm considering making the trip, if I have the time. Though I might be crewing for two teams (you and the Mustang)..... I'll keep you posted. "Will crew for gas money" (or is that "track time") :drive: |

I didn't think the Am V8 guys were to be there. Are you possibly thinking of two different w'ends?

I was thinking that you'd be in Nashville next weekend, that's where I'm considering making a trip to for the weekend. VIR is a haul for me (though it's probably not any better for you). |

I'll challenge you... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Second place in my Discount Tire shop's 4 wheel rotation contest. I lost to my boss cuz he cheated. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Steve, man I wish I could help you out, but I've got a VIP coming into town for the weekend and I'll be fully absorbed by her company. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) However, let me know if you need help again and I'll see what I can do. God I love working for an airline.

Typically, check/fill fuel, check oil levels, air pressures, make sure the hood/body panels are properly fastened, take lap times, tire temps and pressures after coming off track, etc. Then, you get to help/try to fix any crash damage (or help fix it, duct tape it, etc) and anything that breaks. Steve's car is pretty reliable. |

Steve,
If you're ever up at LimeRock, I'd be glad to help crew. Did TransAm for 3 years, and had a great time... |
