Fellow member of the Board sent me this today. I will definitely be going to check out the action as I have never seen one before. I may be lame and sit all alone in my car with newly acquired helmet and pretend like I know how to drive!

Add me to the list of lame people (j/k) sitting in their car watching the action. What time will you be heading out there EJ?

Hiroprotaganist

I'll probably get there around 9:30 or so. Want to go over together?

Sure, I'm only a couple of exits from Rt. 214 Central Ave. We can meet at the metro if you like? Or if you know of another place let me know.

Hey guys- I'll be there, but my S2K is in hibernation. Y'all really should plan on running, it's the best way to spend $20 that I can think of! I'd be happy to ride along and give some pointers if anyone wants. But if you guys aren't gonna run, I'll still be there, just not so early in the AM. Most of the "better" drivers and the rest of the S2000's go later in the day (rubble sweeped off, warmer temps, get to sleep in............) like the 3rd or 4th run group. If you guys can't go later, just lemme know and I'll try to meet up with you whenever you're going.

Gregg- haven't seen you at one of these since we first met in Frederick!

I've got no excuse ( except that the Co. Christmas party is the night before) for not attending since I live 5 minutes away. I hope there are some spaces in heat 3 or maybe heat 4 so I can sign up at the event. I did the spectator thing once and got the itch. If you get there early, watch the 1st heat and you'll be psych'd to run in the second or third. They should have loaner helmets available.
