Henry, the flights I checked from SLC were about $100 less to fly into Omaha and enjoy the drive/scenery as opposed to duck into Lincoln.

Sir.....

If your acustomed to 80's all year round. Lincoln is going to feel cold at the end of September.
I would come dressed ready for a cold stay even though temps may well be in the 60's, or maybe 70's if we are lucky

Regards

On a different topic, are there any ROAR rules to follow in regards to how large the cutouts can be in the windows of a GT car?

Yes - (I'm going to do this from memory so before you cut do some research) you can remove the side & rear windows and you are allowed a small ~15mm glowplug access hole and are allowed a 50 mm fuel access hole -which can be in the windshield but otherwise the windshield must be there.

Maybe get another guy or 2 and rent a van. Split the cost. No wear and tear on your car.

I know someone else who may go and want to drive. Hopefully we can make it happen.

This means that everybody can practice paying a fee like the past Nationals at Homestead?
