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?

Yup. I didn't catch the VIR in your post. 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... biggrin.gif Second place in my Discount Tire shop's 4 wheel rotation contest. I lost to my boss cuz he cheated. 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. 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. biggrin.gif

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.

Glad you asked. You may regret you asked. I leave next Wednesday for VIR. Thurs practice, Fri Practice and Qual, Sat race and leave.

sad.gif I got GNR tickets for Next weekend in NYC.

I will be in Boot camp from June-august. But after that I'll be in Tech school near Norfolk, from Mid august till dec. I should have some weekends off, so just keep posting. Although I've never tested Tire temps, or messed with Hood pins. I've changed my opti 3 times though bs.gif

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...
