Gosh Chris,
If i didn't know better, I'd think maybe you've been hanging around Mike Cox or something.

I dont think we'll be there, but good luck to all who make it down.
Jim

[Chris Eastwood]

Jim, Yeah I spent some time over at the "love shack", I made sure to get out of there before it got dark. If you know what I mean.

[Richy Gonzalez]

GB Racing will be there with the SM and ITA cars. I've been out of a car for too long. Can't wait

Richy, I was told that you are the man to talk to about setting up a CRX for IT, would you mind if I came over to shoot the breeze?

Does anyone know if there are public showers by the 12 hr paddock, or if they are going to open the ones in green park? After all a corner worker can't go walking around smelling bad.

[Richy Gonzalez]

Chris,
Yes, there are showers in the infield which is where I believe they are going to have us. Also, you more than welcome to come by and chat. Now, someone must be lying to you about me setting up a CRX but I have improved a little and I'll be happy to share all my speed CRX secrets

Trash talking?, You have the nerve to say I trash talk Jim? Damn right I do ! ! !

We'll be there and with new brakes and tires.

Even a new wife too. Well I have the same one I've had to 22 years but now she's a blonde. Like she wasn't one before, now the hair matches the way she acts.

And as far as the "love shack" , it has leveling jacks on it so it won't rock.

Richy, we need to hook up again and draft with each other. You know it will probably the last time we'll see Jim since he's going over to the dark side in future races. Heck, he probably won't even wave to us when he passes us now.

so there Mr. "I have a new car and it's faster than you" , I don't trash talk. I do however have pictures of you at the strip joint when we went to the last race in Sebring up on stage with "Bambi". How come you were dancing around the pole and she was watching? Hmmmmmmmm?

Happy Turkey day yall.

See you Saturday AM

Mike

[Junktech]

Strip joint in Sebring, boy thats a scary thought. Did bambi have all of her teeth? Or did everyone have enough beer to where it did'nt really matter?

[manny]

i will be there also.hoping for a small ITB group,only way to post a top 3 finish,lol.the weather looks like it will be great for racing! HAPPY T-DAY and will see you all at the track.ITB #29 very bright yellow mustang.

[Mattberg]

Does anybody know what, if any, tire companies will be there? I got no rubber and don't want to make the trip if I can't get any...:-(

[Mattberg]

WHAT A BLAST! Group 1...Don't listen to those stewards. Great driving all around and great racing!

One more thing...can we please get a window at registration for group 1 only? :-)

[lb2]

Can CFR give the SM they own race group please !!!!! please !!!!



Louis

[Mike Cox]

and can CFR Stewrds please not ever again shorten a race to 4 laps. Talk about taking chances to get to the front of the field. That was about as stupid a thing as they have ever done. I had to force the issue passing cars to try and catch the IT7 leader and some drivers don't know what mirrors are for except to comb their hair in.

[Chris Eastwood]

How did the wind on Sat. effect the cars?

[Mattberg]

Other than my tow being a nail biter, none at all. It died down but there was just enough breeze to freeze your nads off in the registration line. CAN WE PLEASE GET ON-LINE REGISTRATION!:-)

And what beautiful hair some of us young bucks have! Hey how about sharing on the new tires. As one of those drivers who wasn't using their mirrors;I hit the apex at the hairpin and the issue was "forced".It's only a door. Just kidding mike. You know I can't be mad and present you a trophy every event.

Watch it Tucker, I'll hit you again if you make any more comments about my hair (or lack thereof).

Hey Tuck, man I'm really am sorry about that, you and We've known each other long enough to know that we wouldn't do that to each other and it was my mistake.

Hope you and Amy have a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

Looking forward to seeing you in Jan.

Take care guys.

Mike
