Forecast says chance of showers, so be sure you've got appropriate tires. You drive rain or shine.
I'm excited too.
I'd join your caravan, except I live just down the road from the track.

And as much as I WANT to drive my car to the track tomorrow, I think I'm going to trailer it....just in case someone needs a ride home. Jason & I are breaking **** before we ever leave for the track.

Mark, how long is it going to take you to get down there from your house?
I was planning on leaving around 6am from my house hitting a starbucks then going down there. If it will be the same amount of time I may come up there and follow you. If not I might see about hooking up with Howard and taking 405.

Guys I drive 203 every freaking day and its a straight shot for you. It will take you about 45min to get from Monroe to the track and is right around 50mi. Make sure you get there about 7:30am at the latest so you can check in and listen to some racing stories. Don talked about his encounters with Dale Earnhardt including the 24hrs race because I was wearing my Dale shirt. Be sure to ask questions and make sure you wipe out one of their "children" while your out there. Your going to have a blast! I will be there at noon.
I was planning to leave my normal place (Shell station in M'svl) around 6 & head east on hwy 2. I'll bring my air pump, jack, impact wrench, hammers & a tool box just in case.

Called Ellis, and he said not to panic (yet), might have just been a hose rather than a heater core or cracked block. So I started the car up, looked around, and it was leaking from the top area of the motor in the front.
Turned out I had a ripped throttle body hose... fortunately, Corvettes of Auburn had one of those parts in stock. So I drove the car down there, and got the hose installed.
I breathed a BIG sigh of relief at that one...
I can relate Jason. I took the TA out for some test drives over the weekend (haven't really driven it since the tranny rebuild/blower fix). Car started missing like a bastard AGAIN! I checked all the plug wires 3 times - all fine. felt the inj wires - all there. So I nursed it home to check the SES code - inj drive failure. Felt around again and inj # 8 was loose. Son-of-a-B......better than finding it at the track.
OK Ryan, I will wait for you at the shell, and we'll see you in Duval Howard.
