"Live" from Atlanta double points race 2013
 

Well we are on the road again! We left late yesterday and was making real good time until we got to Chattanooga! Over Monteagle Mountain like a breeze, then we got to the construction in Chattanooga! It took us 45 minutes to go about 5 miles. It was down to 1 lane getting on to I*75. But then we stopped at the first rest area as soon as you get into Georgia and got lucky. We got the very outside spot and was able to even get our back slide out and then I didn't have to crawl over Larry when I had to get up in the middle of the night! So now we have stopped to get fuel and get our nasty motorhome and trailer washed! We should miss the morning rush hour in Atlanta and still get to the track by noon or so!

More later after we get there!

Good luck Larry & Patsy! Good to see your live reports again.

Always loved floating down Monteagle into that pretty valley...and dreaded hitting Chattanooga and Atlanta traffic the whole time. Getting 2 out of division points opportunities in one weekend is pretty compelling...but who's going to report from Bowling Green? Michael? Dennis?

Going to BG, only 90 miles from home and Nitroplate Race Saturday night. Doug Duell A/SA.

We are here and parked on part pavement and part grass on the last row of pavement. It is 82 degrees and a little breezy. Chance of a stray thunderstorm this afternoon and tonight and then gorgeous the rest of the weekend. High in high 70s to 80 and even down to 47 one night!

I saw Karen in the sundress and flip-flops riding her bicycle in the pits. Now that is tricky!! Pictures coming a little later. They are teching til about 6 today, I think.

Larry is going up to tech and I am going to try to clean up the motorhome a bit and then get out with my camera.

More later.

Anyone know if the gates will be open all night? Probably won't get there until around 3:00 am tomorrow morning. Thanks

I'm testing Friday, no racing this weekend. 25th anniversary so I figured I better pay attention to Jackie. Heading to Lake Tahoe Monday for a little vacation but I'll be watching classracer all weekend to see what happens. Best to luck to all the racers and have a great holiday weekend! Stay safe!

My Stock ride is based in PA and headin' to Maple Grove, so I'll be going that direction as well. Sumbunny gotta go keep an eye on Billy and his project car at the Grove! BG and Atlanta races are both great formats. Hate that they're all on top of each other. Good luck to all, wherever everybody ends up!

Hey Dennis, ya'll have a great time!

Darren, I will try to find something out for you after this monsoon passes! It is raining cats and dogs right now. But it looks like after this passes we should be good to go for the weekend.

Larry saw John Livingston in tech. He is driving Painter Stevenson's car this weekend. I knew he couldn't stay retired from racing!!

No pictures yet. I had just started out when this cloud came up so I had to get all the chairs put back up and awning in. I promise I will get some!

Patsy,

Can you give a guess as to the car count today? Trying to figure out if I want to take a day off to photo.

Thanks, Butch
