Should have asked for permission first, but I'm working at the same time...
Thought I could help... Please forgive me.

Here is a PDF just for those that prefer that format:
Who knows?, I may laminate mine...
Thanks again guys!,
Mike

 

Attached is a PDF copy for your printing pleasure.

 

oops.
didn't get to the last post to see that AirLock had already converted it.
thanks dude.

 

No Prob, man.
We're all trying to help... always a good thing.

 

Hey guys, LOL, my username and password still works!

Looks like you have planned quite an agenda for the Mazda lovers, good work James. I hope to run into you guys there. Where are you all parking? I would love to catch up. I will be attending under the graces of Mazdaspeed & Mazda...

 

Its a team effort to put something like this together so I can not take the credit for it. As for the agenda well its a nice one but due to time and Daytona raceway restraints we were not able to put together what we had planned. Unfortunately the track wanted to much for a corral on short notice too so we are all on our own.

The rest of the scheduled Grand Am events will have more activities and most likely corral space.

As for the meet spot for what is scheduled we will meet at the Grand Am trailer/ transporter at 10:30am on Saturday morning for the first part of the tour and 5:15pm at the Pirrelli compound. So try and get there on time so we can stick to the schedule.

 

Right now it's looking like I'll be leaving tomorrow morning!!!!!

I'm so stoked, my first Daytona 24 event.

 

I'll be there with 3-4 other folks.... Looking forward to meeting some folks!

 

Hey guys, I just heard from two of my friends that they won't be able to make it, so I'm probably going to just watch from home. Hope everyone has a great time and good luck to the teams!

 

Rhawb come hang out with the old rx8 guys... your like 30 minutes away it would be ashame not to see it in person. You can come down for a few hours and if you are bored you can bounce

 

We're here! If anybody wants to hook up, PM me!!
Rhawb, come on down!!
Mike

leaving now.... hope to a bunch of you out there...and remember the official meet point is the infield at the Grand Am trailer/ transporter at 10:30am on Saturday morning and 5:15pm at the Pirelli compound. Please try and be on time so we can stay on time and be respectful to Steve Focazio.

 

OMG! It was awesome.

Airlock/Mike it was great to meet you, was worth the drive from WV. Swoope/Scott, had a good time walking around with you.

I'm gonna post up about it either later tonight or tomorrow. Got about 90 pictures before cam battery died this morning so didn't get today's events photographed.

Lookout for Koni Challenge rolls though Homestead in March..... it's gonna rock!

 

it was nice to talk with you also mike..

fun to talk about cars and racing with someone that knows about the series!!!!

beers

 

Was a great race with the prototypes at the end, got about 3GBs of pics and vids and only meet or bumped into 05TiGrayLady and Airlock....
Sucks about the SpeedSource 8s was a long race with a bust fuel cell, broken header, and broken axel,,, will post pics later just got home about 2 hrs ago....

 

Hey, absolutely great time with you too!
Between Linda and myself, we have tons of day & night shots to share.
We got delayed, so posting will probably start this weekend. I'll PM all of you!
Thanks again, enjoyed it!!

Had a blast!!! Plan to get down there for more, I promise!

Same to you dude!!
It was as if we knew each other all the time... thanks for everything, including the U-Turns!!
We have some pics of you too!!

 

Another thanks that I nearly forgot:
Eric, Thanks a ton!!!

 

Hey guys, here's a little tribute to the weekend and the battered 8's:
On my way back to WV, we went through an ice storm and I think I won the post race damage battle...
Don't worry, we're okay. Was only going 20 MPH up a mountain on I-64.
No complete damage report as of yet.

 

WTF??? man thats suck big time, sounds like a bad week for damaged 8s
What the hell did yo urun into???

 

Yeah, my 8's tribute to the team I guess...
Looks like #69 came out better.

Took the butt end of a guard rail- the safest option.
Could have had my choice of a couple of Rigs or an embankment instead, but chose to hit something that wouldn't hurt people. The airbags didn't deploy either.

Mike

 

wow,

got a text from the better half.. sucks.

where on 64? time for a 09!

beers

 

Near WVSU, towards Huntington.
Not enough damage for a total... not quite sold on the 09's either!
Really glad that she's okay!
