Title: Mid-Ohio This Weekend
Post by: Boorish Grobian on August 03, 2009, 06:11:51 pm
Any other CA'ers going to be at Mid-Ohio for the ALMS-Indycar weekend? Should be a good show with the debut of both the new GT2 Vettes and the Rocketsports Jaguar. The Mrs & I will be there all weekend.

Much as I envy you greatly (because there isn't the slightest scoobies' wotsit that I can be there), have a damned fine weekend....

Thanks MGM, was hoping a few of our mob might be there to share a few beers with. This is always a fun weekend, with a damn busy circuit from sun up to sun down, with the ALMS, Indycars, and all of their supporting series. Looking forward enormously to seeing the new kit from Pratt & Miller and the new Jag.

Hi Nobby,
Yep, that photo did turn out to be bit larger than I thought. When I load it from the original site its not that big. Anyone out there know how to shrink it a bit? It is a nice shot of the new Vette.

That picture was taken by Vandretti, can't rememeber where. Only thing I do remember is that we had those stickers made in Canada to be sure that our Canadian chapter had them to put them up. ;D

The photo was taken in Toronto. Vangio and I are quite pleased that the picture has taken on a life of its own as we've seen it posted several times on a number of websites.
Knetter, not to worry, we'll talk it over next time we meet over a few pints. ;)
