Stan, your pro-activeness for "The Great Race" thing was most thoughtful, a special parking spot sounds like all we need to have all the locals oggling our cars as opposed to headliners for the day. That and the more relaxed venue of a 2, maybe 3 day event is all us Midwesterners really need.
I think we got lucky with bugs last year, I don't recall them being an issue.
I only ask one request...no driving into the sunset...I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA DIE!!!!!!!!
Steve Wojciak says he might bring big muscle this year. Steve?
We DID get lucky with bugs last year. The heat & drought killed 'em off. Don't count on it this year.
The "road to the sun" on Old Peoria Road (Mitsubishi Motorway to Danvers) was a miscalculation. That road rocks, but it's a lot better when you don't have the fear of meeting your maker due to blindness. Sorry, man.
Regarding Steve's muscle-- I've got more than enough of that between my ears.
