^I didn't know that...must have been a beotch.

I'm having the rotator cuff surgery a couple of weeks after Lincoln, they're telling me it is going to be open, rather than arthoscopic...either way, sounds like fun...

I fractured my cuff 3 years ago snowboarding, never had surgery, Just hope the block they give you during surgery doesn't wear out too soon!

Well I made it into the Pro, so now I don't want my 2 test in tune slots on Monday.

If you'd like to buy the TNT tickets from me, 10-11 and 4-5 are the times for monday. Let me know, $40 each.

Mike, if Mark's ok with it, I'll take your 10-11 slot...I haven't run an event in a couple of months and haven't driven the car since last year...might make sense to take a few laps.

It's also the class where bullsh-tters can't find any greener pastures to spread it around as heavily

I spoke with Mark and he has us signed up to run the T&T early in the morning on Monday...just as well, as I need to try and get used to the time difference asap after arriving Sunday night...nothing like autocrossing at 6am, right?

So, I won't be able to take your 10am spot, unfortunately.
