I know it's a long way out, but maybe more of us will go this way...
ALMS comes to Limerock Park in Connecticut every year. I've been once (summer 2006) and had a blast. You get complete paddock access and you get to shoot from the inside of the loop... I cost ~$60 and is well worth it. Here's the schedule for the entire series (I'd love to go to other venues too):

July 12th is Limerock.

I would have been happy with a cardboard box, but a bed sounds nice too.

Someone will have to have the responsibility of reminding me about this, say next June? I'm completely incapable of planning that far ahead.

That is a very comfy bed too, Ted. Definitely take 'em up on it!

^ everyone LOVES that bed for some reason..

I also have a bed, and or a back yard if you prefer... or the beach to camp on for Stime... :P
I'm ~2 hours from there too.
Funny thing is it's ~30 minutes from where I grew up and I never knew about it until 2006.

I'll add that we have a spare room too if it's needed. But our house is reserved for people who are NOT allergic to cats.

-K

yeah, mine too, and dogs, and by that time babies...
so the yards available for sure.....

will there be a tent in said yard?

I'll take yard.

I have one you can borrow, or you can supply your own.

i'll fight ya for it damnit.

Yeah, they said that before this year too. Their just crying in their cherios because porsche beat them...
But I'll be super pissed if they don't come. 2006 (when I went to LimeRock) was the R8's last race. Bit hooptyla... Then this year I had to choose between my Canada trip and the race... So I did Canada, but if that's the only time the R10 is there I'm going to be this guy: :angry:

i wanna see the r8 damnit

the R8 was cool, but what I've heard about the R10, is that you can't hear it...
It sneaks up on you it's so quiet. My sister saw it in UT.

4 hour drive.. [ok really 3.5 hour]

im not gonna say no though.

Man that'd be cool.

You guys can come to the Road America one, maybe I'll try to go to that one.

Great shots Joey... I'd love to shoot at seca.
Must be a ton of fun to be able to shoot at a track you can drive in GT4.

Jay, normally I'd say I'd be there in a heartbeat, but with the baby coming this spring, CT will be hard enough... Isn't there one in Ohio too that might be a better location for all of us?

Ohio may be doable, Kris' family is from columbus and I've got a friend in cleveland.

I would be in for Mid-Ohio, give me a chance to meet most of you east coasters!

With the baby no promises for me, but if I can get the time away, I'll go. Tent in Jay's wife's family's back yard and all.
It's not that I won't be able to travel, it's that I won't be able to travel w/o wife & baby, and they won't want to do ALMS...

There may not be room with the car up on blocks and the old washers and dryers back there.

Where is Mid-Ohio anyway?

in the middle of ohio?

mmm, we'll have to check on that one.

bump.

So who all is in for this one!

I am!

I am provided I can get away for the day. Nikki knows I want to go so unless someone plans wedding this day or some other stupid bull**** I'm in. I'd say I'm a 99% yes.

My Dad has made noises about going. He wants to go, but if it's one of the weekends on either end of his summer vacation week he won't come. If he does we'll roll the 335i. And I'll get to "drive him" there.

I should be able to commit more solidly somewhere around the first week of July.

I'd really like to try to go to either the Mid Ohio one or the Road America one, anybody up for it?

I'll see how the schedule looks. I'd love to go, but with the baby and all the other crap I get roped into I'll have to play it by ear.

Mid Ohio wouldn't be too bad to drive to.

hmm lime rock is about 2hrs from my house...

i've never been...

i may have to go.

Whaazzzuuupppp!!! with this thread?

I'm impatiently waiting for the NE stop on the circuit.

ditto.

Bump as this is a little over a month away now.
CLEAR YOUR CALENDARS!

bump.
