    Default Petit Le Mans, Road Atlanta - Oct. 1st

    Holy crap I almost forgot about this! Been going since the Premiere in '96 or was it '97, hell i don't remember. Anyways, 10 hour race Saturday...Just 50,000 people drinking and partying and camping for a weekend, great crowd and tons of million $$$ cars. Can't forget about the best looking grid girls in the country...

    I know there are a few people on here that camp out at the esses, I got a 10' x 20' tent I can setup for the day and a 5 person for the night...bring the coolers, chairs, couches, grill, more tents, whatever...and we'll have a crazy ass party. I get chill bumps just thinking about the Ferrari's coming out of turn 7, winding up the gears through 8, and topping 160mph by 9...

    ...normally Earl or Ed (?) from Road Atlanta posts the larger events on here but i guess he hasn't rejoined since the hack several months ago... I don't see why we wouldn't be able to get a decent group discount.

    haven't decided yet, the guy i normally crew for isn't running the pro formula this weekend, he's actually crewing for a team himself...and lots of other things aren't working out right so i dunno if i'm going or not.

    There was no show last year, and I haven't heard of any show being held this year either. I hope to make it up this year, since I missed it last year. This event is definitely a blast. Ice, lemme know if you're gonna be up there this year.
