LRP event on Labor Day

[JFENG]

Mario the man

great, I'll introduce him to a bunch of guys racing old Astons/Jags/Loti, etc. Maybe we can get him into something as old and exotic as his-self.

Stan,
I've been told that if you get to LRP later than around 8AM you're going to get stuck in traffic (bad for old British cars without upgraded cooling systems).

I was planning on heading out very early Sat so I get a good spot in the corral (good = front row and not boxed in). If you want to meet somewhere like the junction of I-290 and I-90 around 6:30AM we could drive together.

But, you'll have to promise to keep up ;-)

I would also ned to get some serious hearing protection!

Ear Plubs

I've got a spare set of -15dB ear plugs that you can borrow (with new/clean ear-tips). Useful at the track as well. Otherwise, just stay in front of me. Then you won't have to smell the burnt oil and unburnt gas either.

I have an xtra weatherproof custom fit E9 car cover (Evolution 3 fabric) avail for sale.
I could bring this to LRP on Sat. Cost, $110.

More evidence that classic BMW's and e9's in particular are becoming the apple of discerning eyes. If we're not careful, these cars may actually be worth more than we put into them...lol!!

A great showing of coupes at Limerock Sunday in the Park.

Congrats to Duane on taking first in class at LimeRock!!

Don't be bashful Duane...post a few pics!!
