We'll be coming in Wednesday evening sometime before the mandatory drivers meeting at 7:00 p.m.! Thursday is practice, Friday is the first qualifying race, Saturday the second, and Sunday the Championships. Again, stop by anytime during the weekend and don't feel obligated to grab a wrench. Most of our hanger arounders sit under the canopy and drink our Pepsi! Sidney AI #64 |

I have a business trip that I am scheduled for 9/11 through 9/14 in Indianapolis.
Is there any way I can beg a ride in order to get from Indianapolis to the mid-Ohio track? I can probably get a ride to say, Ft. Wayne, but I'm not hip on thumbing the remaining 150 miles ... I can snag a ride and help drive some of my Texas bretheren back. It's just the hop from Indy to the track that is the snag. |

Or does it run through the 15th? Give me a call Mitch. |

QUOTE (Sidney @ Aug 10 2006, 12:24 PM) All, Team 309 will be coming to the NASA National with (3) 3rd gen American Iron Firebirds from Central Illinois. Everyone is welcome at our paddock to stop by and say HI or whatever. We won't have a crew and could always use help bleeding brakes and such. We're pretty low maintenance unless something breaks. Will be bringing a back up rear axle assembly, T-5, and other spares we hope to not need! As we are the only F-bodies currently registered in AI, we can use all the support we can get to beat the Mustangs! Sidney Franklin Bloomington, IL AI #64 Sidney, I've decided not to go broke trying to get the new car ready for a shakedown at RA, so I'm 90% sure I'll be at the Championships on Saturday and Sunday. If I had vacation days, I'd be there the whole time (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

QUOTE (Glenn98ZM6 @ Aug 10 2006, 10:13 AM) guys, i'm bringing this back to the top as we are @ 30 days till i/we pull out for this event. if you want to offer up a place to crash for myself or as many that can sleep on your floor and shower @ your place, or you would like to offer you place up for tow vehicle repairs if it comes to that, shoot me an email w/ your contact info. input on the route from here in Dallas to Mid Ohio would be welcomed. i've never driven that route (never driven farther north than Tulsa, OK!!!) and could use the advice. sounds like St. Louis is the way to go. Check your PM's. |
