    Off to Thunderbolt tomorrow

    I'll be loading up the gixxah 600 and heading down to Thunderbolt tomorrow around 1:30 or so. Hope to see some NESRians down there for the 10/4 trackday. Post up if you are going.

    Too bad, Noel. I was hoping to meet you finally. Have a great time at VIR. I was there in April. What a great track.

    Ken and I were just going to work out of my trailer.

    It seemed to work fine at Lightning last time.

    Weather won't be too hot or rainy, so outside should be fine.

    Outside is fine with me, as long as there is electricity.

    FYI...
    Electricity costs $35 for them to hook you up outside. Garage is $100 and has room for 5-6 people to spread their shit all over the place. And included electricity.

    Re: Off to Thunderbolt tomorrow

    We should have organized garage space together. Oh, well. It'll be great no matter what. I guess I'll look for Tony's Honda truck, as I don't know how to spot anyone else. I have a black Honda Pilot, and will likely have a blue tarp/tent set up. Hoping to roll in by 9:00 tonight.

    Why electric? Tire warmers?

    The way absolute ran last time, you were forced to take two warm up laps behind an instructor... so warmers are less important.

    Anyway, I guess we'll play it by ear.

    Ken and I are staying at the Holiday Inn Express. We plan to drop the trailer tonight at the track... watch a little... then head to the hotel. If plans go well, we'll be at the track by 3PM, leaving for the hotel by 6PM. We'll most likely eat at the Chilis restaurant in the bar area... but that will probably be before you guys arrive.

    If you're looking to park near us... my trailer is a single axle, black... about 12 feet long. It will have a blue kryptonite lock on one trailer wheel.

    Electric for the wide-screen tv, microwave and fridge, of course. Yes...warmers really aren't necessary. I don't intend to hammer right out of the gate anyway. I'll be at the Holiday Inn Express also, albeit not getting there till around 9. Looking forward to see you and everyone else.

    Bed?? I'm about 40 miles away. Stopped for food. I'll look for you at the Holiday Inn Express Lounge.
