There's a 2-hour endurance race going from Noon until 2 pm, so I don't want to arrive much before the conclusion of that. Because the pit road crosses the track they may not let anyone in until after the race is over.
Thanks for the info, but looks like the time frame is tight based on the location and I won't be able to make it. My family is stopping around 3:30 PM, so I'll have to cruise early. Thanks for posting and good luck to your son. Hopefully see you at the next City Club lunch.

Thanks,

Raina and I hope to be able to make it (in other words, if we can get a baby sitter, we'll be there... )!! Thanks!

Hope you have at least 2 extra lawn chairs for the wife & I.

I'm not sure if she'll be able to make it this year. (she just got her duty assignment changed at work with different days off)

But you know, I'll be there. (I'll call you to find out what the wife can make)

Say hello to your "better half"

Fish, would very much like to attend and meet some new friends.

I too will be bringing my Dad to the show again, and would love to come by afterwards.
