I'll be there for the duration, and looking forward to seeing the gang!

Will Ricky Bobby be making an appearance this year?

I will be there from Wednesday night on. I am not planning on being at the track all Friday and Saturday, so looking for adventure. Anybody got some good car stuff for us to see?

Do you need tickets for the Concours? I cannot see any place for spectators to purchase them in advance.

I believe the concours is open to the public.

I would be surprised if they charge an entrance fee too. If they do have a fee it might be a donation to Ronald McDonald House who is the FCA's National Charity during it's year-long 50th anniversary celebration.

Mark, can't wait to see pictures of your car. You have my vote in absentia for the Gilbertsen Award too.

O.K. I'm finally home after a nearly cancelled flight, and arriving home at 3am last night..

I should let Mark and Zac tell the harrowing story about how much they worked to get the 365GT 2+2 to the show on Thursday. Despite the numerous issues that really can be attributed mainly to lack of time, Mark's car managed a silver award which is better than what we got for 2259!

Despite the disappointment, I met some new friends, shared time with old ones, and enjoyed seeing everyone.

I'm going to get some rest, and get back to work!
