Default Be safe tomorrow, guys

I know everyone has been anxious to shake off the winter blues and get out to the track. Please be careful, guys! It's been a while since most of us were behind the wheel racing so let's take it easy. There isn't a lot of rubber at e-town either. No need to be a hero.

I don't plan to go any faster than 8.0 myself
