If this is for the middle of the day, I am in. I work Wed night from 8pm till 8am thursday, and then 8pm thursday night - friday at 8am.

So if it's in the middle of the day, I am in.

Do we have any times?

Thanks,
Mike

I am in for either this week or next--just let me know. What time? I can be there as early as approx. 9:30 or 10 am, but would prefer to be done by about 4pm.

Agreed but do we want to go to a wet/moist track after the rain passes?

OOPSSS.....

Sorry guys, I meant Next Friday the 12th....please mark your calenders.

If less than 8 show up track fee is $850, if 8 to 15 show up it's $1150 and if more than 15 show up, I didn't inquire that far.

As for times, we have a week to decide....I was thinking 11AM to about 3PM.

Please mark your calenders for next Friday the 12th.

VIC, I can't remember what day you were taking off.

Would be awesome if Stephens can come....BTW, Fridays are the only day they will rent the track - no exeptions (don't ask why, but that's their lame rule)

MIR does track rentals on Thursday but that doesn't help your situation. Friday next week is just too busy for me. I'll have to catch up with you guys next time.
