I'm thinking some mild flurries with only minor accumulations on the grassy areas, no need for panic just yet.
You were just scared of Gary busting your chops in a post too Marc!

True!




And I believe that Atco is done with rentals for the year (as of last week actually), we spoke to Kevin a couple of weeks ago and that's the impression I'd gotten.
But maybe something can be set up for January (weather permitting)?

I've seen Atco open for a TT in January or February if the weather is good, so I can't see why they would be opposed to a rental.

It's 3:20 and the snow is ending in NoVa but of course there is still a heavy cell dropping snow in La Plata, MD not far from the track. As it turns out, I'm feeling OK and probably could have made it tomorrow. .

I was hoping to have my car together for tomorrow but I guess it doesn't matter now that its canceled.


Probably a good thing, I wouldn't have been ready anyways....It turns out my shifter was moving not because of a blown up diff mount but because my torque tube is in 5 pieces now....

Pffffft! Who cares about FP? I could not care less if he ever returns.
BTW- I spoke with PunkinPuss today and think that he's a good guy. I say kick out FP and bring Pumpkin Expresso into the fold.
