Go to sema! I dont even know who is going to go. It looks like just me and Jenna.

As for getting a good spot. Everytime I go to mir I get put in the worst spot ever. It sucks so bad! They put me back in the dirt really far from the track. I am def brining my quad, It sucks walking 1/2 mile just to see the track.

with my track record of car reliability at drag strips, there’s no way I’m going to run my shit that far from home… trailer or not. Fuck that noise.

I wish… hahaha! I think I am gonna go next year though-just too busy this year.

You should roll down with us… I usually get a good spot. We may park with my friends from Jersey this year.

for what it is worth there is no such thing as Waldorf Holiday Inn any longer. It has been taken over by new management and is now being operated by Clarion Inn.

The Best Western in La Plata is about 15 minutes closer to the track. I booked the rooms online here: [http://book.bestwestern.com/bestwestern/productInfo.do?propertyCode=21029&disablenav=true](http://book.bestwestern.com/bestwestern/productInfo.do?propertyCode=21029&disablenav=true)

I have to check with Denis but right now I have us arriving Friday night.

About to order a set of new slicks for the event(waiting on to see if 24.5X9.5’s are legal.). Possibly turn up the power. I dont know if they are inforcing the 135mph 9 sec licence rule. They seemed pretty cool at the last event.
