Already sent this to ACammer, but this weekend on the way home from camping, I got passed on the thruway this beautiful thing. Looked to be completely stock SS with the RS package. First time I've ever seen one in the wild that I wasn't driving lol.

Spike - I'm thinking maybe this is the guy that was at Sylvan Beach a few weeks ago. It would figure that I bring out the 1 year only, ultra-rare color to a show and there is somebody else there with the same thing!

There's also a good possibility of getting Art to come out and drive the pace car (some of you know what I mean). For anyone who has not done this we meet at gate 2 at the track around 11:00 to sign waivers and pay the $25 fee to run 3 laps at noon. If 10 cars or more it's $15. These are 3 paced laps, no passing, no burnouts, no idiotic stunts. With Art behind the wheel of the pace car the speeds will be what most of us can handle. After that, we will head over to Seneca Grand Prix and ride the go-karts, provided we can get that set up. Ususally $20 for 2 10 minute sessions behind the wheel. Then if you want, we can go back over to the track and do the 5:00 run. What I need now is an idea who is interested for what. please post your poison - Noon laps, go karts, 5:00 laps. No need to PM me, just post here so we can give them an idea of the head count.

Count me in for WGI for noon and 5pm, please.

BTW, We might be able to do 2 runs at noon if we want, for anyone not staying for the 5:00 run. Rob is getting back to me to confirm. Go karts all set for 1:00

This sounds good - cheerleaders, and two runs at noon. A second run without waiting till 5pm sounds great to me.

Do we have an idea on cost for the go-karts? Also, are we shaping up with enough interest to get the $10 off volume discount for WGI? Just trying to plan and budget accordingly.

$20 for 20 minutes. We should have enough cars for discount. Not sure at this point if they will discount a second noon run though. Bring cash. They don't take plastic at the gate or at karts.

Forget this -- I just looked and they are gouging $30 for this Friday night (9/2/16). No way I'm paying double for what's gonna be a busy night for them anyways. I'll probably try again 9/16/16.

It would be cool if any of you guys wanna come along, just let me know. We'll probably Caravan down - details are still up in the air at the moment for an exact leave time, probably right around 4pm from exit 40, but get in touch with me if interested and I'll keep you in the loop.
