Yeah.. I am just part of a team that does a car specific (more or less) track day every year and that's enough hassle.. add in a car show and all the other stuff.. no thanks.

We tried hard for North TX but the hotel was a ways from the track which was okay but they wanted to charge for parking with no in/out privileges. We ended up in Houston that year.

Yes, two different tracks, hotel, car show, night events. It gets pretty crazy.

We will be opening up Hotel reservations this month so stay tuned...

Sturgis is lots of fun as well - went to a couple of those while stationed there.

haha... i'll have to check the newspapers. there's a huge binder of laminated articles from the 80s & 90s by the entrance door of significant B-1 events like arrivals, MX problems, crashes, etc.
who knows... maybe your face is in there

You make it sound so long ago...

I worked B52-D models there too.

I did see Skipette the other day. She's probably having another baby as we speak.
