There is a lot of places for that Larry. Pick your choice!

Depending on the amounts of noise is to where you would go.

Hope I didn't post this warning too late for some people.

Make sure when you drive though Whitecourt you do the speed limit. If you are doing more than 70kph in between the city limits signs, odds are extremely high that you will receive a nice picture in the mail of your vehicle a couple weeks later.

See you all in a few hours.

I won't be able to make it. It looks like it is too late to take my entry out of rcsignup. Sorry Mandi. I was trying to make it right to the last minute. Hope you have a weekend without rain. It rained for the other 3 rounds.

Well made it back to the hotel and had a great race weekend, not looking forward to 6 hr drive back to Calgary in the morning but it was worth it.
Great race put on by Grande Prairie folks, awesome food at the concession and the site security was a nice added touch.
I Have to thank a lot of people first off Steve for lending me a battery for the Amain in short course after bumping up from the B.
Bruce for trying to help me get the tune on my truggy Friday.
Lastly Matt and Kyle for pitting for me all weekend, if you guys had not showed up I would not have had as good of a weekend.
Since I am not heading back until tomorrow I will try to post a video of the action tonite, as long as the hotel network can handle it.
