Since I have heard that a certain individual is going to beat the field "by a mile", who is going from the M-A Region to shut his trap?

Rob (the other part of WWR) will be there to test a new car. I doubt he will be applying any pressure,but you never know......

Any others? I have a big can of WA if you need it!

Bob, that problem with you "Rebs". You've all got coondogs (under the hood). You've all been trained to run in a pack and everyone wants to be the lead dog.

You don't leave much room for the rest of us.

Todd,

Great idea! Bring the gang. Might even get our own run group if enough of you southern boys show up.

I was thinking of running Road Atlanta in March (assuming it's ready)with NASA. Now if I can just talk a few other Mid Atlantic guys to drag their butts down there.

Better sign up now for VIR as it typically sells out. Sign up for the enduro too!

Brian,

March NASA at Road Atlanta is a go as of now. We don't expect that to change.

VIR would be fun. Maybe Todd should sponsor me as a development team.

Email sent, Todd.

Jason,

I don't think Todd needs much development on that 99. How about I put you on my undercover redevelopment team (your job will be to slow Todd down) so my RE powered 1.6 will have a chance. [Big Grin]

I'll even throw in all the food and beer you can consume for the whole weekend!

Looking forward to seeing what the shock hats and less wieght will do this season.

Heads up Alan... it's your worst nightmare. Time to cinch up your HANS device, your favorite chiropractor is on his way. Yes, it's true, the OPM gang is coming to VIR. Leave your daughters at home and lock up your beer coolers.
Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Two correctly used apostrophes in one post? I'm calling bull$hit on that actually being Fowler at the keyboard.

Car building & car prep? Fantastic. Typing? Not so much.

On the next thrilling episode of Fowler Does Posting will Tom respond to critics? Will he prove that he can handle something more then an etch-a-sketch? Or will he threaten to take Maki's Red Bull away unless Maki posts for him? Tune in next week, same time, same channel!

Lance, It took me 2 month's to talk Fowler into getting a light in his office. If you go in his office you'll see him writing workorders with a Lantern. Plus he's taking a 6 month night class to learn how to text on his cell phone.

Don't know why, but SM2 is still on the list for registration. Ignore. All one happy SM family.
