    I am already signed up. I will be tracking a new ride this weekend so I am sure I won't be as fast as you. At least until I get used to it. Are you coming for sure? We plan to be there late Friday afternoon. Let me know if you are coming for sure and I will try to save space so you can park nearby if you want to.

    Since I no longer have the Maserati, here is what Ravelle is now using for her daily driver. Ravelle is very happy with her new ride and I am already trying to talk her into tracking the car in the first Porsche event after it gets broken in.

    Well, I am already a little bit spoiled by my other cars, but it is still a great car. Ravelle absolutely loves it. I must say I have never really fit in Porshes very well, but this car is an exception. We got the standard transmission so I have been running laps around the I77 and I40 cloverleaf for the purpose of brushing up on my heel & toe and it is a lot of fun. Last night was the first time I mentioned to Ravelle that I would like to get the car out on the track. It would be a blast. So far every where we have gone since buying the car I drive the 360 and Ravelle drives the Boxter S. I think she is turning into a car fanatic like the rest of us.

    GREAT TIME TODAY! DON'T MISS TOMARROW!! We had Auston (360), Rob (360 sypder and Porsche S Boxer), David (348c), Crandle (355c), Adrian (Ferrari Art), Danny (GT3), Luca (SL), and lots of other neat stuff. You should have seen the Lotus 23, the 928 that was stipped, had one race seat, and pulled his own trailer from Greenville, as well as the other cools track cars. Rob had a really cool new RX8, set up by some of the best (Doc), who happend to be with the car.

    Rob, thanks for the airconditioned comfort, and congradulations on the RX8, looks and sounds great. FRENCH QUARTER IS NEXT!!!!

    We had a great time. I really liked the RX-8, no traction control, no anti-skid, and worst of all no horse power. But I had a blast none the less. The car and hopefully me will be a little faster next time. It is going to loose another 500 lbs, get another 40 hp at the wheel, and get a roll cage to help protect my big fat ... Here are a few photos from the day for those that are interested.

    Dude... you're going to need to stop eating with Eddie and I at the culinary hot-spots of NC if you think you're dropping 500#.
