It was 150 cars last year,  and everyone that wanted to go, got to go.  
This year as one of the featured elements we might get some special  
treatment. I doubt they'll have us leading off the thing, but they  
might at least stick us all together.

It was really fun, I wouldn't miss it. And Diane will need a ride for  
anyone that has an open seat (they wouldn't let her sit on Peyote's  
fuel cell, I can't imagine why). She is in NYC this week, visiting a  
friend, but she packed her leather helmet and goggles. Pictures, here,  
but a warning too, there are pictures of an injured LBC (more injured  
than I thought at the time. Tony Garmey is STILL working on Peyote to  
get it ready for Watkins Glen. I'm glad I took it to Tony, it wouldn't  
have been ready, and for many, MANY reasons I don't want to miss this  
race). If you have a weak stomach you probably want to have some  
Mylanta handy. Also I made a disparaging remark about the SVRA's  
handling of the accident that I apologized for later. I left the  
remark in place because the apology wouldn't make sense without it.
