Haha.. I was just about to make a thread...

Anyone backing out yet?

There is rumor the Canadadians are not coming because the bars in Norwalk only serve Domestic beers?

Two cars in the garage here tonight with sparks flying....

The guys on my local forum just got back from their Norwalk track rental yesterday. According to them, the track was slicker than ****. Other people confirmed that it hasn't been prepped all that well during some earlier track days this year. Basically, it doesn't seem to be at all like what it used to be. That's no good.....

Be afraid of the canucks-could be a sneak attack-and this comming from someone who hasn't even run 10's yet?

Vince, Rob, Jeffrey, Mike, Tony, Dave and myself will be there-we can't wait!

To say that I can't wait would qualify as one of the all time understatements of the year. While the "racing" should be fun, I am looking forward to finally meeting (in person) all the fellow "extremist" who share my Corvette/FI interest and hobby. I am also looking forward to seeing first hand all the various systems/combos and how they run.

That's why you joined the darkside!!!!! Man I hope you and RoadRebel and Earl don't lure me over just yet-it's hard to argue with those cars.

Dumb question, but where is Norwalk? I know there is a Norwalk in So California, but I doubt that is it.
