Tranny coming from Utah. If all goes well it will be here by 11.30 and we'll make the race at 3.15
Start at the back but should make for some good video.

Pennies I'm sure compared to what has already been spent prepping the car and getting there!

Were you the orange Vette running GTC and Time Trial? That car was crazy - 1:57 in that heat is flying!
