This year we're opting on leaving Monday. We are scheduling to arrive Thursday night and leave Monday morning.

Hopefully I will make it this year.

flying back home Monday is always the best bet because of race use you runs till sundown .Awards are after that which is typically 8 830.

Yes, it is an open motor race for the GT class. Byrons fuel will be available for sure (since it is their sponsored race).

Shawn,

So you going to let me test drive the 977 that Chad out qualified you with?

Hey you still owe me a back rub from out qualifying you in the 1st round from last year!!!

So between you, Chad and I......What is the bet this year?......Maybe a foot message...

Looking forward of seeing you guys at the Byron's Onroad Challenge again!!!

Andy
