Edit: you gotta love the look on the flagger's face. hehe

I look forward to seeing you there - I thought I recognised your name on the web site. Is Ritchie coming too?

Maybe you can talk Rob into dropping the Time Trial so you can get in. I DOUBT IT!

Rob - Cool you're in the TT - have you done a TT before? You must have added some equipment since I saw you last, roll cage, etc.

I'm not making this one, But I've planned one heck of a Saturday Baquet (thanks to Carbotech) for you guys.

Brian, How come none of us Older Z car guys are in your pictures...

Matt, where are you one the waiting list for the TT? If you 1-3, you may get a call this week.

For those planning to stay at the Ramada, call SOON, they only have a couple of rooms left. After that people will need to start calling the Hampton, the overflow hotel.

be sure when making your reservations you use the THSCC, TZC club names or Group number to get the discount.

Those pics are from MazdaDrivers VIR Full last September. I was unable to post pictures from two weeks in the future. ;-)

I will be commuting to VIR, so I won't be at the hotel.

that sure is a pretty lemans sunset in those pictures. i also like that little reflective effect you got off the tag on the back of my shirt.

anyway...i DO plan on making the parade laps on sunday, as long as there are parade laps. i haven't been to a TZC event before. should i expect there to be parade laps? anyone know for sure?

good news is that i can take pictures to my heart's content.

That IS a pretty LS. I especially like the pic from behind, on-track. I still can't believe you got that plate!

I'm not sure if you've seen these, Sean:

Sean in Roller Coaster 764k

Sean in Hogpen 478k

Damn Z owners and their lame a$$ Z plates. j/k

Anyways, you have to be careful. I got pulled over on Rock Creek Parkway here in DC accelerating late one night, and the officer said: "I see your plate says 2Z Track, and tonight, I could take you 2Z Jail." haha (not really). For the record, I called the officer's bluff and he issued me a warning instead.

Sorry, I digress...
