    I doubt there will be a coral but the rv will be parked at turn 7 again.

    Unless you drive a high priced car that is represented in the race, its doubtful that IMSA will have a car corral set up for you.

    Ill be there, up by the bath house by T5.

    Uhhhh, cause it's fun. I remember in 06 we had a pretty good turnout i the suby car coral. I guess those days are long gone tho.

    I just picked up an infocus projector from techlord. I figure a screen on the side of the rv and we will have a nice theater setup.
     
  17. nicad

    nicad Yes I am a troll

    I need to call you and discuss some stuff. wagunz_pwn and I were planning on setting up two projectors, two PCs with wheels and race chairs for some heads up racing action

    oh, and roasting a whole pig. :coolugh:
     
  18. pEd

    pEd This ain't no Piccadilly!

    I'll bring a projector as well.

    We NEED to figure out food and who all will be coming.

    We will also need a generator. The rv has one but I don't know when I'll have time to fix it. It runs ok but if you put the kind of load we are talking about on it , it will stall.

    What game are you going to run?
     
  21. nicad

    nicad Yes I am a troll

    probably GRR:Evo or rFactor. I have GTR2 also

    mike I can probably bum us a generator from someone @ work. did our spot move? there are also some electrical outlets down in the skidpad...
     
  22. pEd

    pEd This ain't no Piccadilly!

    I got the spot info last night. I haven't opened it yet to see where we're at.

    I'll check it tonight and start a new thread for it.

    missed last year, cant wait for this year. my suby is long gone :( but my dad and I will be there in his MR2 turbo.

    Cool. I'm starting to get in the ALM mood!

    So are there only 3 classes running? No GT1 right?
     
  25. K. Marx

    ^^^

    Yes... No GT1 entries this year (at least none that I am aware of).

    GT2 is going to be awesome, though, and a welcome change from the lameness of Corvette running a class all by themselves. This will make my fourth year attending, and now that Audi has promised to come it looks like this race may be the best in a pretty good while.

    I'm going up on Thursday evening, and plan to try and stick around until Sunday morning. This is a first for me, as I usually come on Sat. morning. I see lots of beer in my future.

    I'm gonna come by the skidpad again this year so I can annoy some of you. If ya'll see a, um, "big boned" guy with a blue wagon and gray SPT wheels near the woods at the bottom of the esses, feel free to come have a drink or just shoot the sh*t.

    Just found out a driver I worked with at Subaru in 03 is racing in Mazda Atlantic Championships. It will be good to catch up with him! We all need to root for him. :)

    i just figured out i'm missing it AGAIN this year. For a kick ass reason, though.
    The Stone Mountain Chili Cook-off is that day. And, being the reigning chili champion from last year, i guess i'll have to choose chili over cars.

    So, if you can't make it to the race, come by St. Mnt. Park and vote for my chili. So Fine Bovine! i promise, it's kick ass chili!

    Butt, the Butthole Surfers are playing @ the Masquerade Saturday night, so that'll make all things better.

    Chili, the Butthole Surfers and the Petit Le Mans all on the same day. go ATL!
