FYI, if anyone has a breakdown or needs to do some last minute fixin', I live about 10 minutes from the track. I've got a lift and a few tools to make quick repairs if needed (TIG welder, large hammer, what have you).

I made it! Left Vancouver BC yesterday afternoon, slept in the car somewhere just South of Portland and arrived just before sunset at 7pm.

Great seeing you all today! Twibs, I'm glad you were able to get that squared away without missing a session.

I'm registered for both days. The chances of my car not running by then, or running and then broken again, are high. At least it'll have many new shiny parts.

God damn website!
signed in at 9:00 on the dot and was able to pick B on Saturday and Sunday but by the time I filled in the info I guess Saturday already got filled and it wouldn’t process Sunday so I had to start over.

i ended up getting B on Sunday but got locked out on Saturday!
