In a catalog... Right now its duct tape and a tarp. I wouldnt mind knowing where that thing touched down just for curiosity's sake but a search of the area went without any sign of it. With all the damage people had in the community it will be a couple weeks before I get a new one mounted as there are bigger fish to fry. Not complaining, some folks are much worse off and I should be able to hold the fort till then. I would do it myself but dont know how to properly weatherstrip it or whatever is done to seal it up.

A check of their web site indicates that they're looking for enough people to sign up for an all day laping session in Jan.

If it looks like it's going to be dry, I'll sign-up. I need new rain tires. All I have right now are Hoosier slicks

I'm about 8 miles away in Maple Valley (near "4 Corners" which is the intersection of 516 & 169). Where are you at?

I will be out at Pacific Raceways (what used to be SIR) for a lapping day in March (17 with BMW club) or April (15 with Alfa club). I try and run a lapping day a month April - October. I only made (6) lapping day events last year with my C5 debut.
