USGP, anyone?

[SaraKate]

I just found out I'll be able to attend the USGP this year...will any other OffCamberites be there?

SaraKate

[rocket]

Yup, hopefully it will be a couple of degrees cooler than last year...just a couple though.:D

[Cam]

Yup! Thats the plan! :)

[rocket]

If Cam's gonna be there, forget it...I'm out:D












I hope to run into you again this year so we can chat a little more. I gotta wander down to that gig Lizzerd has set up too.

[Warlock!]

I'll be across the street in a puddle of vomit and urine, enjoying myself as always. :cool:

I think I'll skip the puddle of vomit and urine, thanks. :\ Is there a secret handshake for meetups, or should I just wear some CART gear and let others put two and two together?

I think you should post some pictures of yourself so we can see what you look like. then we can find you. :)

[SaraKate]

Hmm...let me check the TOS list first, then see what I can post. :p

Yo, kiss Defender and I'll take your picture. ;) :p :)

I wanna know. Is Chop going to miss this because he has to wash his hair, or is it the doily convention again?:p

If I were to attempt this this year, where does one stay? Do you guys all camp out?

I managed to keep g. pretty sheltered and innocent last year at RA. Do they have "family" camping, or is it just time for him to grow up.:D (or is it just unwise to bring youthful champcar enthusiasts to this?)

"camping"?

more like sleeping in a parking lot.:yuck: a filthy, stinky, dust encrusted owned by FTG parking lot.

go fer it! :gomer: :thumbup:

Other than being owned by Toney, it's pretty much just like camping at any other racetrack. Loud, drunk, dirty, and obnoxious.

Camping is located on the grassy areas northwest of 25th and Georgetown.

Myself and a few others will be "camping" at a friend's place a few streets away.

[stroker]

I hadn't seriously considered going to the race, but I'm thinking that if the tickets are cheaper it might be worthwhile. I've got a friend who's from the Indy area and he undoubtedly knows places to crash... Hmmmmmmm.....

Do it! It's cheap!

Prolly time to fire up a "USGP who's in?" thread. Although I know where most of the usual suspects will be, but there might be some stragglers that may want to get into the act... :)

[SaraKate]

...should I just wear some CART gear and let others put two and two together?

I just found myself a Target Chip Ganassi Racing ballcap from the 1996 "PPG Indy Car" Championship year. I don't know when I'll be out wandering around the track that weekend, but I'll try to wear it when I go. If you see me, just say "FTG" and I'll know you're a friendly.

:cool:

[RTKar]

In for three days this year, staying at the usual spot, drinking with haters at the same friendly hangout :cool:

[Lizzerd]

Camping in lot 1A. If you plan on camping, PM me for "details"... Seriously. Do it ASAP.

Noon - 1pm Indy Pro Series™ Autograph Session

Wonder if they are going to have the famous "Indy 500" drivers participate in the "ProSeries" again this year? If you recall, Indy coiled snakes such as Mad Dog Marty Roth, Big Chief Cory Witheral, Ed "the hammer" Carpenter all participated in last years tilt.

[Dirty Sanchez]

yeah, they do love their motorsports. I go up to the sno*drift every year in northern michigan and there are tons of them in attendance. I was in monaco a few weeks ago for the race and there were tons of polish there as well (huge crowds of them)... I think they will be the new columbians at indianapolis.

[Easy]

LSD to the Skyway Friday night. I'll be on the alert for WRXs with Polska stickers and cones stuck in the wheelwells. Good luck with the Dan Ryan everyone.:eek:
