thanks tom. enjoyed talking to you, i detest this disembodied stuff. that makes at least two registered. and we are guarunteed a t-shirt. loved the guy in your shop, who i think said in response to you, where is vir and what do you run. you are exactly right, run what you brung, no griping. this is for fun. heck, i have seen f150's run at vir and driven well. let the last track weekend of the year be festive. who's bringing the turkey. i'll bring the cranberry sauce. but no pumpkin pie. oh i'll have some beer too. that's the dressing.

Me. Not sure how. Anyone got a wife willing to watch two full grown labs, a two and a half year old boy and a newborn? Actually, the labs are my heaters and since I will be camping, they may come with me.

 

[garyk]

yes i have a few of those heaters. wife staying home w/three dogs. jack the killer race dog comes w/me. he never gets in trouble as he is very laid back.

I'm in. I'll be registering today or Monday. Just have to decide what tires to run.

 

[Penguini66]

Well, I just register this past week, so I'm in!

If all my plans work out I should to able to have Thanksgiving dinner with my folk back in SoCal, fly out early the next morning into MD and drive down to VIR by Friday night in time for day 1 of the event!

I just re-read you post and realized that it was Thanksgiving weekend. Great! I had originally thought I would have to use a vacation day on Friday to get down there but, I have Thursday and Friday off. I guess it helps to look at the calendar once and a while.

 

[P-51]

Oh no... is it Thanksgiving weekend? That's not good, I didn't realize.

 

[teamDFL]

US Thanksgiving, btw.

It is the Saturday and Sunday after Thanksgiving. That means, since most people have Friday off, you wouldn't have to use as much vacation time.

 

[P-51]

Hmmm.... well that really sucks. Cause I usually go home for that weekend.

See, I get paid for Thursday, but not Friday. So I'd sit around the house on Thurs, and drive on Friday. Come back on Monday, and end up using 2 vacation days (Fri and Mon).

I thought it was a regular weekend. See, I'd work 4 10 hour days, so I'm sort of "paid" for the Friday, then just take off Monday.

Err....

 

[Penguini66]

Could you work four ten hour days the following week? I know that's not the same as having all 40 in then taking Friday off but it may be worth a try.

 

[P-51]

They don't let me do that. Rules.

Lodging,
I called the Berry Hill Mansion and got a recording that they would not be under Marriott ownership after 1 Oct, the website says they are booked that weekend but that's the Marriott site. Does any know what the story is?
