>I'll be helping all I can but I have to keep an eye on the GT-3 car. We

>We CAN'T let a 240Z or a Porsche 944 beat Chong in the pits! Those two
>guys have full crews and Chong is all by himself. Saturday is practice
>and qualifying and Sunday is the race. I just looked at the schedule and
>for some dumbass reason, they put ITS in our group so there is NO WAY I
>can help Chong when he's out on the track! Qualifying is at 2:25
>saturday afternoon so you party animals can sleep in and still get there
>in time but it would be better if you show up early to help with set up.
>Sunday the race is at 10:30 am. I'll even make you all a deal and I hope
>Chong goes along with this. If you show up both days and help out, and
>Chong wins you can get a ride on the victory lap. That means you get to
>ride (fast) around Laguna Seca in the winning ITS car holding the
>checkered flag out the window! And if Chong doesn't win, hell, I'll give
>up my victory lap in the GT-3 car for you.(bring a change of underwear)
>How can you pass up something like that?? saturday evening is the social
>where you get free food, free beer, wine, soda or bottled water. So
>let's boil this down. A weekend of some of the best racing around at one
>of, if not the finest racetrack in the world, free beer and food, a
>chance to get a ride around Laguna Seca in a real winning race car
>holding the checkered flag and the feeling you get when you know it was
>YOU that helped put him in the winner's circle. Chong might even let you
>keep the flag too. I know I'm speaking for you when I don't have
>permission Chong so you can slap me around Friday if you want :-) OK
>that's my sales pitch for the week. I hope I'll see some of you this
