Damn I hadn't been on NICO in so long didn't even know this was going on in my own backyard haha.

If anyone needs any help finding hotels or anything let me know.

Guess this means I'll have to get my car ready for that weekend.

Oh very nice, thats only a few minutes from my house as well haha.

Maybe I could get a dinner set up or something one night. I have a friend whose family owns a pizza place here and they have a HUGE party room so space wouldn't be a problem.

ALSO, we have an UPDATE!!!!

I just got off the phone with an old friend - David Muramoto will be in attendance!!!

Image

David is the Acting Editor of Nissan Sport Magazine and columnist for SportsCar Magazine.

He will be conducting the Driver Meeting, and will be instructing during the road course portion of the track event. David will also be available for ride-alongs.

Videos of David - On-track action!

He'll just be coming off a SCCA Double National the week prior in the Project T2 350Z, so he should be in top form - If you've never seen this man drive, it's a treat!!!

Spread the word!

Anyway, Lawrence got hung up somewhere near Omaha, so he might just drive his truck there... and I'll meet him with the vette. I'm going to get the keys from his sister's house right now :)

If you bring a helmet, I'll make good on my offer to let you rip it up in the rally car.
