Averaging 90 through there seems a lot more realistic than averaging 100... Not sure why

Watch out for the gravity well near 64/75... My throttle tends to stick every time I go through that area...

Maybe it has to do with the color of the car...

If I remember correctly.... WSB got stuck behind some slow cars for a bit... before he got free!!!

You can either meet us at Hooter's in Newport at 8am (or 9?) or you can make arrangements with someone in Cinti (Though you'll end up at Hooter's in Newport either way). Motoo will probably ride shottie with Joe or myself.

I've got dibs on Mike's daughter's room... unless she's in it of course.
