A few of us are meeting up at Wawas on the way to MIR at around 8:15 and heading towards MIR at 8:30. If anybody else wants to meet up you are welcome to join. We will probably leave right at 8:30 though. Here is the address

16410 mckendree road Brandywine, MD 20613


That V is so badass

It's rare that they open the concessions stand, but Jason normally let's us use the hospitality suite, if it's chilly. We just have to promise to leave the suite as we found it, and keep it clean. So far, we've been good about it. So, that just means that we can't do a Charlie Sheen to the place....

yes they do have 100 octane unleaded. I don't think they have 105 (don't know if he wants leaded or unleaded). They say what fuel they sell at the pumps on the MIR website mirdrag.com

Snack bars will NOT be open. I had them do this once and nobody bought anything. The guy was pissed at me. Bring food or plan on leaving the track to get some

I talked to him about the suite and he said we can use it but can't have too many people in it whatever that means. But yes, PLEASE keep it clean because he doesn't have to do this for us and won't in the future if we leave a mess.

Damn, I've been monitoring this for a bit, wanting to head down with the SRT and enjoy the fun again...and was going to bring my two GoPros for anyone to use.

...Just can't make it this time with the five hour drive and having to fly out early Sunday morning. Damn you work.

The list of attendee looks long, but distinguished. Sad to miss it.

Someone please get some good pictures and videos so those of us who can't make it can live vicariously through them.
