I'll be down there Saturday for the Learning Curves school. Are you guys staying over the weekend? Would be nice to meet some people from the board.

Ok, follow up. Now I'm confused I checked Roebling web site and it shows CCS racing all Saturday, but then I double-checked Learning Curves and they have a school for that day at Roebling.

So how does this work? Does the learning curves school run in between CCS sessions or something?

The learning curves school is run during the CCS events on Saturday. They squeeze in few track sessions and a mock race near the end of the day. That is where you race all the students. Depending on the turnout, I may be out there with you guys in the school as a track coach. I help Matt Blashfield (lead instructor)from time to time with his school.

There is more stuff to do in downtown savannah than you can possibly do in a weekend. The waterfront downtown rocks.  Killer resturants ( pretty pricey though, but who cares right), great bars. It is usually a drunk fest everytime we go to Roebling. You know... it's like skip sunday morning practice so you can throw up all morning in the porto-potty's trying to get rid of the hangover before 1st call.  ;D

Lap times are consistanly slower on Sunday, compared to saturday :-/

Cool, I was worried there for a minute. Though maybe I had the wrong date or something.

R6_Philly I will keep an eye out for you and TreyBone too.

I will be the guy with a tiny Mazda Protege5 (Silver) hauling more than it's suppose to :lol (Blue/White Gixxer 750) Should still have the #724 from NESBA on there.

sunday morning practice??? they have practic on sundays?  ;D we drink into early mornings at any track hehe

I guess we will take a ride into downtown and check out the water front. Good restaurant is welcome. Pricy? well can't be worse than where we usually go - Mahattan... so maybe it will turn out to be bargain prices  :D I hope

You know, I just realized that I have to drive 12 hours straight, over night, to be able to get to the track by 8 AM. Then I have to learn the track, set up the bike, and race 4 races and hope to win...

maybe Sat. should be rest and drink day instead, and go for racing on sunday?  :P I think I need some help... need a second driver

R6 know the feeling, except I'm not racing. My wife is my second driver we are leaving Thurs afternoon and driving straight through.

Only problem is usually I don't sleep well in the car so more than likely I wind up driving most of the way. LOL

Ha, I was going to start a RRR RC thread, but I guess I was too late :)

We'll be down there Fri. evening. I'll try to find & meet all you guys, I'd like to put a face to a name.

Also, feel free to stop and intro. yourself, I'll be in the red Dodge Ram with the 5x10 'C2 Communications' trailer: BTW, thanks to you that gave advice on how to put on the vinyl, it turned out nice:

If only I could figure out how to get rid of those big black streaks on the side of the trailer  :)

Hopefully I won't be Trey's backmarker this weekend :)

I'm heading down Thursday also, 9 hour drive for me.  I've been there just once a year ago, so it'll be all new for me too.

Go out?  Nah not for me. You guys who went to Daytona have the jump on me w/points so I need all the help I can get. I'll bring my xbox  for entertainment.

Everybody go out, party & drink up!!  LOL
