Sorry that I'll be missing this drive. Keep safe and have fun! I hope you (and me) are blessed with good weather.

There is still a very remote chance that I might join you -- if I get Black Flagged on Friday for excessive sound! No sense hanging out at the track if I can't run. But I am bringing a few exhaust modifications with me, so I hope I can bob and weave around the sound issue. Still putting out about 92 dB with the Car Chemistry insert, but I'm also bringing my SuperTrap tip and a new 10" Supertrap muffler. if I have to use one or the other, I just hope those Super Traps don't fall off!

Book arrived Aashish. Thanks.

Jeff

Jeff, while we'd love if you came, I'd not want you to lose out on track time that has already been paid for. We'll be thinking of you. Im sure your car will do alright with the sound police.

Hope you enjoy the company of Skippy Welcher, Big Ed Baumstein, Cal Carrington and Buddy Palumbo

Just did a pre-drive of the Lakes to Locks Passage section so that I had all my reference points in mind. JJ was along for the ride and it was beautiful. With all the rain we had the water was gushing over the locks in several section and it was all very scenic through Washington and Saratoga counties.

I'm hoping there will be water flowing at that rate on Saturday as well through the locks. It is a sight to behold for sure. We stopped to have dinner at Peddlers as well. I made a reservation for 4:30 PM on the name of Upstate New York S2000 Owners. I need to call them on Saturday AM and let them know how many people will be coming. They said it will be hard to arrange for us to sit outdoors. Somehow, I dont think that will be a problem after being out in the sun all day. The Manager offered their valet parking service as well, which I declined knowing how much we'd be disinclined to have someone else park for us.
