Smokie, if you e mail me your address or a fax number I will forward you our receipt. Looks as though you all enjoyed Sebring, I was green with envy, maybe next year I may join you if Henry will let me retire. Brian

To make your dreams come true, you have to stay awake. More Low Flyer's anyone.

Just a thought, I know this is early days but if you boys enjoyed Sebring, you may want to think about catching the Petit Le Mans in October as well.
Hmmmm!!!! Could be interesting. If Andy and I start this import thing we'd have a very valid reason to be over there too!!

You can see all of us non-Le Mans 05 folks are instigating trouble with tempting suggestions for other events.
I too will be at RA again in October. Last time I flew from vacation in Colorado for the weekend and met-up with Fax and Matt (who had to depart for a blow-job of some variety). I was back in Colorado on Sunday afternoon, but needless to say it wasn't optimal. With a bit better planning Fax, we can make this the swansong trip for my Porker as I'll launch it in Spring of 06. However, having just driven through the Smokies in the Putley Creech Land Yacht yesterday, I suspect our lower backs will be hurting after that trip, no matter what velocity we chose.

Best wedding I have ever been to I see you are more than just a Sebring party animal. Sorry I missed your autograph session, I was at the Green Park Cows Autograph session instead. What a hoot! Road Atlanta is a great track and the Petit is an obvious choice to attend. Canada Phil

Hi GAB, Was good to finally meet you, as you said it was only for a handshake and hello, so many new faces and things to see! We'll have plenty of other opportunties to shoot the breeze I'm sure. Yes Road Atlanta is an even better spectating venue. The rolling north Georgia hills make excellent natural amphitheater veiwing and the layout of the circut itself is fast and flowing, the drivers love it Allan McNish once saying it was his favorite of all.

Direct flight with Delta is currently £282. I have an important mmeeting on the 28th September so couldn't fly out until the 29th. But sorely tempted!!
Zarse, shall we make it a trip to collect a motorhome??

The Petit is indeed well worth the trip. A somwhat different atmosphere than Sebring - or Le Mans - historically it was very much a 'wind-down' at the end of the ALMS season (that role has now moved to California) but it is an awesome event, nonetheless. The circuit is waaaaaay superior to Hendrick Field and you get even closer to the action. Climate is perfect also. Mark/Andy - a suggestion. Knowing you both as I now do - and you being JLU's - please consider this invitation to my home in O'town prior to the event and then a shared drive up to Atlanta in Truckosaurus. If you haven't been, Atlanta is a FUN place. Overnight in Buckhead (northern 'burb, which is Partytown USA) meeting with Dave, Fax and a few others and hit the track on Saturday morning. Leisurely drive back down 75 on Sunday after the race. Last year my Road Atlanta trip was curtailed somewhat by Hurricane Jeanne - so I intend to beat the tar out of the event this year. Consider this a formal invite - and I will be highly offended if you decline (no pressure or anything, you understand). Seriously - I mean it, if you'd like to come over again. Regards Fatty

Matt, thanks for the kind invite, it's much appreciated. I'd love to commit to it right now but I kinda been spanking the ass out the old holiday allowance recently. Seem to have had a holiday every other month recently. Have trips planned to Vegas or Dubai and also Antigua already on the cards this year. Can I squeeze in a cheeky weekend in Atlanta? You betcha!
ps what's a JLU?

Hi Andy, I'm guessing its "Just Like Us" but could be wrong. Gotta make this quick before the internet Nazi's here at work get me but it would be great if you guys could make it over for the Petit, as we've beaten into the ground before, its just a terrific event, laid back atmosphere, great autumn weather and a brilliant venue. All in all a very nice way to say goodbye to summer. Fax
