Doug,

You picked the one weekend in July I am unavailable so unfortunately you'll have to take me off your list. Any other weekend I would have been able to do it. Maybe next time...

To bad they chose that weekend.

That is the same weekend as the Vette Fest at Virginia Motorsports Park.

I think I will go to Petersburg in the morning and then run down to Langley for this event late in the afternoon so I'm still in. Plus the Vette Fest is on Sunday as well.

It's about 2.5 hrs to Virginia MotorSports Park from Nokesville. It looks to be about 1.75 hrs from VMP to Langley.

Of course not, we would love to see you there.

How have you been since you left the BCC? Business still doing good?
