It must be talent. Nothing short of true "raw" talent that is.

Helluva lot closer than Fairbanks Pete! If MIR 2 is in early November there is NFW I could make it. An Atco rental in early December is MUCH more do-able for me, but that really depends on how the rest of this work season shakes out for me here in the high country. One of my oldest friends from the crazy street racing days back in the late '60's still lives in Jersey and still owns a bunch of cool cars including a C6Z and probably one of the nicest '62 409's anywhere, would go wild if I trailered my car out to hit the track with you guys.
He's in Holmdel, (GSP exit 114,,,) and I bet he'd even take his car to the rental and make some passes with us.
My biggest reservation about a trip to the northeast at that time of year towing a trailer is the real possibility of nasty weather along the way. (been there, done that a couple of times coming back from FL in early spring and having to drive through a blizzard with the Z on my open trailer.) NOT fun! I'll keep this on the back burner and see what happens! It would be great to meet and hang out with all you crazies, not to mention the fun we'll have at the track!

Jim
