Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

It really is a shame that you are not coming this time Andy - but your excuse is a good one - and as ever, it'll be here next year.
Have a great time hurtling down mountains, with no brakes, dude.
I'm guessing you have your hands full tonight, with the advance party - just so all you folks not coming this year don't feel too pissed-off, we had a tornado warning this afternoon and it has slashed-down all day today.
Tomorrow's arrivals may have quite dramatic short finals into MCO - there's a major storm forecast in the area around the time they are flaps and wheels down. I'll rush them to FoF to calm their nerves.
Saturday's bunch can look forward to a much calmer evening, back in the high 70's.

Mark, Wooly Paul, Rick and Melissa all stayed over last night. We had a few beers in the loca. I dropped them off at Gatwick this morning, telling them I hoped their plane didn't crash and to give my regards to the troops. The ball's in your court now mate!
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Heard that BA cabin crew are striking on 20 & 27 March. 27 March is my return day, just my bad luck that I booked to fly Virgin...

they also strike 21st and  22nd march, our return flights
but all interncontinental flights are safe for now, our only issue might be the Gatwick-Amsterdam flight, but worst come to worse we will have to call some English friends to have a beer
23rd is not a strike day :)

I thought I had my own web page for a minute http://www.sebringraceway.com/miss12hour.lasso (erm - cos I am going to miss it!)

Obviously they've decided that the likes of Pidge appearing in the programme a few years back wasn't presenting the image they wanted :):)

Jesus Christ that was a mo-fo of a shunt that Field had, looked more like a plane crash!
Happened right out by T10.

Have fun !!!  8)
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.
