    Who's going?

    I'll be there Friday and Saturday. I'm really looking forward to the GT3 cars in the WC races.

    If you buy a parking pass. Mid-Ohio is $queezing the fans to make up money for the missing race weekend.

    It's always been like that since I started going. Without the VIP everything is ala-cart. I have my infield and paddock passes. We're stopping at the paddock on the way in in the morning Friday. Then be down at the Ss by lunch. I'm bringing my pop-up and your welcome to join us as always.

    Sorry to hear that. I'm only going for the WC races. I think it is the best racing series going right now.

    Wow, $90 for a Fri/Sat ticket, infield parking (which is Sold Out by the way), and a paddock pass. That is one event that I would want to make sure that I got pre-ordered ($60 total).

    Hope those of you that are going have good weather and good racing to watch!

    I pre-ordered so it wouldn't hurt my back pocket as much. My thinking is they are trying desperately to find the dollars lost by losing the Tudor Series race.

    Weather looks very good for Friday & Saturday looks OK too, with a higher percentage chance of rain.

    I passed on a Saturday ticket with parking and paddock pass. I'm just not that interested in Indy Cars. I've also lost touch of pro sporty car racing this season too. Tudor has borked it so much I've lost all interest.

    So only Chuck, my non-MINI buddies and me on Friday. No one on Saturday but my non-MINI buddies and me. I'll drink a beer in your memories.

    Fun day at the track Friday.

    A few to tide you over until I get done in the darkroom.

    That car is an absolute thing of beauty. I've got some detail shots of it I'll post up in a day or so.

    Yes, I am thinking of taking a road trip down to 3R and browsing around the shop for a few hours, I hope Bob will not mind.

    They have gone top of the line since our Vintage racer days.

    Although, they still do Vintage too.

    Looking forward to seeing more pictures.
