Have fun at the race. I am a firefighter and normally work as a pit fireman each day of event. However, this year I can't make it. Sucks for me. There nothing like standing on pit road when the cars come in.

Silver, tell me what to bring and I'll do the best I can to get as much as I can. I can't bring any alcohol, as I'm only 20 (yeah I'm still a baby). Just let me know how I can help!

How about gator-aid? I drink tons of water and would love to have something else non-carbonated occasionally.

Choose what you like or add to the list:

- Gator-aid
- sandwiches
- Cookies
- Chips or other crunchy munchies
- Watermelon
- Sodas
- Beer

Other things to bring:
- Lounge chair
- Camera/video camera
- Ear plugs or head set with a radio (broadcasted race)
- Sun screen
- Hat/Cap
- Rain Gear optional (I bring an umbrella and raingear top)

Oh, we haven't discussed the GA RX-8 Club shirts and caps? If anyone wants one we >may< have time to get them made up, I don't know. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll find out. Some of us already have one but you new guys may not know about them. If your interested, read this thread:

GA RX8 Club Shirts

but let me know and I'll try to get it expedited.

I have a shitload of gatorade that I can bring, that would be perfect. I've read that thread about the shirts before and figured it was just to late. If we could get a few (I'm pretty sure Gimlet would like one as well) that would be awesome!

The embroidery guy has what he needs to sew off any time someone wants something. In order to expedite I may just get him to make some up and bring them. I can bring an assortment. Do you have a preference of color and what size?

If you want to take it to him you can get the embroidery for only $6 or $6.50 (cannot remember). Your in Lilburn, so if you don't mind driving to Lawrenceville on Monday you can get by really cheep by using a shirt you already have or purchase cheep. If you want me to take care of it I'll just stop by Kohl's on monday and pick up some shirts to take over to him and get done... actually I think I'm going to do that anyway cause I'm sure some others will want one.

are any of you intersted in meeting up somewhere early Saturday morning, and doing the caravan from there. I know wht05rx8 lives near me, and Nabil has to go by somewhere to get to 85. It was just a thought, so that we could all try to park near each other. I doubt they will have a spot saved just for us although they should.

Let's meet up!

I see/hear you all the time now, around Barnwell, Holcomb, Nesbit.

Let's get breakfast, and head up. Which way do you go to RA, back roads or 85 North?

I'm trying to get free Friday, and check it out for a few hours.

But will be there allday Sat and Sun.

.........peace

i tend to announce myself :D

we can get grub at the Chick-fil-A there at Barnwell, across from Taco MAc and the Brewsters.

I will go up 85N, maybe get off at 985, not sure which is faster. I wanted to be there by 8:30 Saturday morning. But I am sure I will be up really early...anticipation!

Chris, if you get an opportunity friday to try to secure a place for us, please do. Pam will be there before I will. Maybe yall can get our plot of land secured. I'll be in after 5-6 PM with the cover.

Oh, there is no racing on Sunday. The big event is on Saturday.

Look forward to seeing you guys again.

Val, forget NASCAR, come play with us!

I hope to be at the track by 7:30AM on Saturday so I'll see you guys there.

I'm pretty sure 85N would be faster, where do you plan on meeting? Because that is the way I am going and caravans are always fun

you could probably try to pick us up at Jimmy Carter and 85N. We both live near Holcomb Bridge, and will catch 85N at Jimmy Carter. Probably around 7:30-7:45 a.m.

chris and i will be getting onto 85N, there is not much on the south side of jimmy carter just west of 85, but i will try to find something. I know there is a pep boys not too far off the exit on the west side of 85. Maybe we can just meet up there, anyone that will be wanting to caravan up to RA from 85 and jimmy carter.

Jimmy Carter is PERFECT for me, that is the closest 85 exit to me! 7:30 is great as well.
