Got that right!!! These two racers forgot more about racing stickshifts than most can ever learn!

Larry Hill · 03-12-2013, 08:32 AM

Its raining and quiet.

James that is a cool diagram.

A quick word about the track prep at SGMP. The track personel at the gate said the track was using VHT. I had no proplems hooking and I never heard anyone complain about the track prep. The track crew did a good job! Thanks.

As Patsy said, it's pretty quiet here in Gainesville. I'm sitting here in my trailer getting some work done, and all I hear is the sound of generators running and the occasional rain drop on the trailer roof.

We've been in line since late yesterday morning. When we arrived back at the track this morning, we heard that parking was going to start around 11 am, weather permitting. Last I saw, this rain should pass through by late morning, so hopefully things will be moving by then.

More reports later...

I posted a few more pics on the South Georgia "Live" thread last night. I particularly like the one of Larry and Craig!

Larry & Patsy
Thank you for all of your hard work, reporting & picture taking at the races you attend.
My 2 brothers will be in Gainesville watching, so i told them to introduce themselves
to you.

Love all that you do for us S/SS racers.

Enter the Englishtown Nationals, (my home track).

Larry, you don't need one of those pedals to prove you are a man, but Chuck Norris does! LOL. See you and Patsy at Belle Rose!
