So far just a few historics meets at VIR, but I'm hoping I can do Road America this year. Very slight chance of that though.

Toronto
Laguna Seca

Nazareth is 1 hour away from me ... I attended EVERY CART Race there... I Have Not & Will Not attend the IRL Race there... nor any IRL race anywhere.

If I got Primo seats for the Indianapolis 500 to sit Next to Tony George himself, I would give them to the Smelliest, Drunkest, most Incontinent Homeless Guy I could find.

I might make the ALMS date at M-O, if only to find Ms. Gajoch and tell her that her management of the place sucks.

Other than that, I'm too bummed about the state of the sport to want to attend a race for any reason other than being with friends and acquaintances.

No worries Anait. My hat's off to you, and here's why.

'Twas a lovely day last Sunday as yours truly boarded the plane from the left coast on my way back to Toronto. We had a one hour layover in what I thought they said was Winnipeg, and having been some years since I'd been there, I thought this was cool. Little did I know I'd regret my choice of words.

As we started the final decent into town, staring at all of this foreign-looking white landscape, the co-pilot came on and advised us of the local time and weather.

He said paraphrasing, " the local time is 1:20, weather in Winterpeg Manitoboggan is mostly sunny with a light breeze. The current temperature is -19C :eek:

I thunk he was fooling. HONEST!!!! To disprove his -19 and "Winterpeg Manitoboggan" deal, I walked outta the terminal building upon arrival, and I gotta say again, my hats off to you and yours.

I've been sporting nipples that would cut diamonds ever since. :rofl:

It is looking pretty certain i can make the jump to Surfers for the race, how much money do I have to send you to get a holiday :thumbup: :D

:eek: :rofl: Okay, that description does sound painful... But you get used to the feeling.

I'm hoping for a very sunny T-O race. The last time I was in Ontario (Waterloo), it wasn't very cold (-8), but it was so wet and rainy I was chilled to the bone.

But race weather is usually nice and sunny, innit?? I'll be able to sport a little tank top sporting a team logo, and work on my tan?? :cool:

Going to Mansfield truck race this year thanks to some freinds at work that bought us tickets. What the heck should be fun, and it is free.

An autocross I was going to race in got moved back a week so I want to go to this race; the Truck series is my favorite of the three major NASCAR series, and I haven't seen Mansfield before, so I want to check it out. How much are tickets?

I ain't the one to ask. paper and Dajari asked me if it would be warm last year, and I'm still living down the nasty cold rainy Saturday deal. (but Sunday was warm tho')

And oh yeah, if you need help in picking out a really tiny tank top, (preferably see-thru for that all over tan :D), I or one of my assistants would be more than happy to help!

Oh, and about getting used to that -bazillion tempurature deal...... it's a dry cold, right?
