    Just got back. Wet most of the day although the track dried out around 3:30 and the Porsche crowd got to run some better laps. All in all, a wet day at Mid-Ohio is much better than a dry day at the office :biggrin5: BTW, I set up an extra chair between Nathan and I for Jeb Whooley...I think he sat there most of the day :p

    Do we have seating or shall I bring a folding camp chair?

    Is this the right place?

    Yep a chair is best. We'll find a nice spot in the shade back in the esses. Panarea is a good place to pick up a picnic lunch. They have a fine selection of silverback approved grub.

    It's a deal at twice the price, but saving money for donuts is good. :donut1:

    Yeah, good idea! I remember the cars being loud at the Rolex race in Daytona. Anyone need some ear plugs? I'll grab them from work.

    If we came up later would we be able to find y'all and park nearby? The kids had their swim classes cancelled this morning and rescheduled for Friday morning.

    Sure come on back into the infield. We will be parked back in the esses by the pedestrian walkover bridge.
