What do you think the chances of getting one more meet in before the end of the year is? I'm guessing it won't be long before my little SL is nestled in my garage with its trickle charger going until I break it out once again in the spring. I could alway come down in my ML or C class 4-matic though. I might just need Jake to tune the wifes new C anyway.

Wow, the reach of this storm is pretty amazing. I heard lake Michigan was going to have some significant swells. I'm out near Delafield (25 miles west of downtown). It is just a bit windy here. Maybe more to come?

If anyone is interested, I am most likely going to head to Byron Dragway for one last shindig.
There will be a tailwind and D/A should be well negative. As close as us Chicagoans will ever get to ATCO.

When are you going? I was thinking about heading out there for a couple runs tomorrow. I'll probably leave by 12:30 though because I want to go visit my nieces who were born Tuesday.
