OK, just asking if anyone or who is thinking about going to Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta.

I am planning on going, but hit a major stumbling block today when the pay deal got rejected on which I was counting on the back pay, dated back to January to finance my flight.

However, I am all set for making the trip though so may well book it anyway and hit the plastic and hope that the pay deal sorts itself out sooner rather than later and in enough time to pay off the credit card.

I'll be there with 10-15 friends.  

Matt & Dave Harper and myself will be there, wouldn't miss it for the world.

Georgia is nice that time of year.
Canada Phil

And miss the debut of the Porsche LMP2?  No way!

IN!   :)

You look familiar.  Maybe it's the haircut.

I bet Road Atlanta is a mess right now, Atlanta got something like 4 inches of rain the other day from Dennis.  My little sis lives over in Augusta (clear over on the Georgia-South Carolina border) and they got socked with two inches in about three hours.  Road Atlanta may take the rest of the summer to dry out!

Nothing for certain yet, but I'm hopeful of being there.

....just a spit and a holler from Stubbsville, (cue duelling banjo's soundtrack). Just kidding John.
Buford GA got 5 in rain in 24 hours Sun/Mon, so a trifle damp at the moment.

There was something on the Weather Channel about a tornado hitting the Atlanta Speedway, not Road Atlanta track.  It did a lot of damage to the NASCAR track so it may be out of commission for awhile.  Pictures of buildings down, tower down, etc.

I'm going -- will be camping at Turn 10 with the ALMS people and cheering on the Speed World Challenge boys most especially.   ;D  I also have a piece in the program which ran in the earlier Road Atlanta program too -- on Chili Pepper Racing.

Kate,
I don't think the Speed GT lot are at Petit are they ?  ???I was looking at the schudule just the other day and Road Atlanta wasn't listed, at least not on the list i have.

I too was looking forward to watching them race again ! >:(

Would any CA members planning on attending please chime in.Trying to get a
head count.[need to make plans you know]

Did I mention I met Rick Cutler?

Rick how is the Sebring DVD coming?
 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Randy,

I am definately coming. Just booked the flight last night and also my Talladega tickets. There will be my dad and myself. We should be arriving at Road Atlanta mid afternoon on the Thursday and will need space to pitch a 3 man dome tent. If possible i would like to pitch it near all the Turn 10 crew.

Do I need a car parking pass as well as the camping pass or does the camping pass cover the car as well.

Randy,
Many thanks - However, sadly (??) I will be scuba diving in the Egyptian Red Sea at the time of the Petit.

BUT - I'm defo on for the Sebring 12 Hours - it's in my diary.

Helluva codpiece you've got there Steve. Do your fetishes know no bounds?
It's a shame you can't make it over here for the Petit, you'd love it. Equally entertaining as Sebring - just in a different way.
I will be in attendance, along with my uglier brother David, all-knowing sage John Brewer (aka Fax'n'Figures).
I'm also hopeful that Andy Z and JPC can make it over for this one, as our guests/co-drivers/beer-luggers. It's a quality weekend.

Wish I could be there, folks, but as you know, I will be sorting out 'The Rest Of My Life' in France.

When is it exactly? - will watch it on sat tv with a stubby or three and a bottle of Chatueau Brain Damage.

Have fun.

Still hoping to be at the Petit, but it's Sebring that I may well have a problem with. The England cricket team are touring India in March and as part of my quest to see cricket on all test playing continents I may have to opt out for the delights of Bombay or Madras and have always fancied a trip to the Sub-continent. Have so far done Australia, New Zealand and the Carribean, only South Africa, India and Sri Lanka to go. I will not be doing Pakistan, mainly because alcohol is banned there.  ??? Are they mad or what?

Can't be in two places at once I guess.

Eew,you're right, they are not on the schedule for Petit!  Well then maybe I won't go.   :'( 

I will be at Laguna Seca though.

Kate,
I took a peek at Road Atlanta's website www.roadatlanta.com and it just says that Formula BMW will definitely be there and the rest of the support races are to be announced.  Speed GT and Touring may yet end up on the cards...Stay tuned.

Why do I not see Rick Cutler's name on the list for PLM.If he is not going then I am not going! :P
