When are you guys driving out? Maybe we can caravan. :eek:

I'm buying plane tickets and flying from Kansas City back here Sunday night with a Wednesday evening return.

Edit: Still haven't figured out how that's going to work... <shrug>

I'm waiting to find out if I'll be "invited" to the ProFinale after I run the Pro in Toledo. If I am invited, we're leaving on Thursday the 8th and getting there on Friday the 9th, and then coming home the 17th and 18th.

I *am* the tirewarmer. :stickoutt

Ah... maybe I'll just stay out there the whole week. Dunno. Doesn't sound like a good time to me.

My response was more along the lines of actual confusion... Topeka is THE National Championships you know.

GRM isn't a BMW mag.

Topeka is host to the SCCA Solo II National Championships. It's only the biggest motorsports event in the country.

me neither... now that Ive been spoiled, I dont think I ever will again...

Thanks for picking me up Kevin. I had no idea the airport was so far from Topeka...

Lets see... 18+ hour drive vs. 2 hour flight... I think Ill take the flight :) and it prolly costs less than the price of gas! You just need to find some idiot to tow their car out there for you.... hahaha :stickoutt ;)

If I had the cash, I'd go out and run in STU to build up the attendance. I'm nowhere near fast enough to win anything, but I would consider going to help out everyone that wants STU to become a national class.

Unfortunately, I don't have the budget for it this year. I will be doing 4 events in 8 days this fall however :alright but they are just local events. :(
