Petit Lemans, who is going?

[monaro_gto]

The turn 4 crowd will be there as usual. Just 2 weeks until I pack up the truck and arrive in time for Wed practice.

[monaro_gto]

Just got back from the Aussie Bakery and if anyone likes meat pies then you will be in luck. They will be at the track for the whole event.

I have become a fan of those meat pies. Still don't know what kind of meat it is, but it's tasty!

I haven't decided how early I'm gonna be there, but being realisitic... Zaxby's for lunch.

Zaxby's is my all time favorite. I think last time I was in Atlanta I ate it five times in a row. There's one in Virginia I hit up on my way to VIR sometimes.

I was thinking of coming this year to Petit but unfortunately I have leave for my sisters wedding out west so it's too close of a clash.

sounds like you need to have a heart to heart with your sister at Zaxbys.



sorry to hear you have to miss the race, but you can finally get the whole thing live on SPEED

are you the LSU fan that camps near the comfort station?

surely, we've exchanged pleasantries before, i'm sure. there are a couple others that i have seen there in T4 every year for a while now.

Was planning and scheming to be able to head down for my first ALMS race, but roommates and VT football schedule have conspired to keep me broke and chained to the store for gameday. Maybe it will be Sebring 2010.

Bummer you can't make it, but family first... I suppose. I used to dine at the original Zaxby's, which was a double wide trailer with a screen porch. They did serve beer however.

Lame. The Jackets are at home against NC.

Bring your rain gear boys...

[fieldodreams79]

with the weather we are having, i was starting to get that feeling of PLMs of old. rain about 40 to 60 percent of the time.

who will have the honor this year of rain in every session?

I actually haven't been to Road Atlanta for a while. It's a great place when the weather is good.

Would have liked to have gone down there for the race but it's too much travel to have gone down then back and then a 1800 mile drive out west.

I'm down south usually at least once a month or so, hence I do get Zaxby's on a regular basis. Don't know how I'd survive otherwise.

I will be there, Camping up between T5 and the back straight. Somewhere near that bathhouse.

Anyways, after tracking down the frequencies for the radios, I decided to clean up the list. Below is a link to a spreadsheet I made. Prints out neatly on one page and only lists the cars that are on the PLM entry list. Enjoy!

[fjn356]

I'll be there for my annual fix of red clay by mid-afternoon on Thursday.

[fieldodreams79]

look forward to seeing you again fjn356! i've got some clay around the house and on my work clothes you can take back with you!

and thanks mindspin....saves me from updating the spreadsheet i had from last year. i found that one of the three SPEED frequencies worked better than the others....

seems that a couple other 10/10thers will be in the turn 5 area. i've done the turn5 camping once...never again. a bit loud, but there's more grass too

[monaro_gto]

Looks like I will find room in the truck for a couple of bails of hey.

[wheelz22]

I shall be there...looking forward to it.

But when you have to work because you live in the college town still and will be the only guy in the meat department all day the choice is made for you. If I could get the days around it off, I'd be there even if it meant month's of nothing but ramen and water after. Guess the DVR will be filled up by Sat night, and I'll have to hope I get Sunday off to watch it.

[fieldodreams79]

wheelz...are you camping or hotelin it?

Which of those Speed frequencies works best? I was going to put all 3 on, but then I had one line of the spreadsheet on another page so I killed one of those 3 to make it fit
