Live from Gainesville
Well not quite yet but we'll make the short trip from the camp ground to the track in the morning. We've been RVing since last Monday and I'm ready to race. We took a 75 mile ride today just to look around and came across Camp Blanding the National Guard training camp some cool stuff to look at there. The museum was closed but they had a lot of old military equipment to check out (pretty cool). Here are some photos from our stay in Waldo and our ride today.
Now this is a motley crew Craig told us about Freddy's, some pretty good fast food. Off to there new home???? |

Re: Live from Gainesville
Thanks guys, well were in and parked and because I'm not running the Gators I have a great spot. I here a lot of people are not happy and are planning on withdrawing and not coming to this race again. I'm not sure why they've made the parking situation the way they have but there's a lot of unhappy racer's here. On a lighter note I've checked over the car and been thru tech and ready to test tomorrow. I'm hoping for a better out come here, we'll see.

Re: Live from Gainesville
Well with 35 Pro Mods entered plus 100 stockers (including the Factory Stock Showdown cars), alcohol, PS bikes, TF Harley, TD, TS, etc they’ve intentionally packed the place to maximize the spectator draw. Lots of racers unhappy when they have to park on the road course (2.75 miles round trip including the run) and get their cars hot just getting to staging.
Sounds like those running just the division race got the far better deal. Good luck Robbie.
