Looks like someone with E-Weed Whacker had the same question. Unfortunately, now it looks like I'm asking you about the Rolex TV schedule! I better ask to have mine delete.

Sigh. I wish I could get there. It looks like a great deal to me.

We're going this year. We're making an 8,000 mile round trip to the Oregon California border pulling the beast. That includes a stop in Sonoma for the race.

Wow! That's a long haul. I'll bet worth it too.

I've already got it planned, mapped out and the reservations made. It'll be about a month and include all of the sights and such that we haven't already been to. We're really looking forward to it. I'll post it in the "vacation" thread and the "race pics and experiences" thread.

If you haven't already been to Crater Lake NP, it's well worth trying to fit it in.

Thanks. We don't have time this year but we'll put it in our next trip up. Hopefully next year. This year we're going up I-5 through grants pass to 199 south and down the Pacific Coast Highway. It's going to be a helluva trip. I'll post the route in the Vacation thread.

Too swanky, needs some flames, checkered something.:D I know Nascar has more women fans in proportion to others, so maybe that's it. :D

Ally/HMS drop it off curbside -- and I'll roll it in the garage myself

then bask in all its garish glory as I watch NASCAR on the monitor and work on my motorcycles! :D
 
Checkered Flag waves -- start the clock:

30 minute Amnesty Zone -- Pit Road, Garage, Hauler-ville, Press Conference, Racetrack Medical Center, etc.

Pure unfiltered "Racing" analysis/commentary/callouts by the competitors -- Drivers, CC, Crew, Owners, etc. with 15 second delay for broadcasters, except Cable guys and SatRadio who can put it out in real time.

No fines for language, personal observations against fellow competitors, NASCAR, sponsors, etc. No religion, race, or non-NASCAR family taunts.

No glossed over race coverage from the booth and Corporate commentary crew -- fans deserve straight forward reporting and commentary on the race, especially on controvery/s; especially to include NASCAR controversial calls.

IMHO :D
 
You don't even need a sheet of aluminum. Get a sheet of notebook paper. Bend two edges down so the paper has a couple of short 'legs'. Stand it on the legs and blow under it. The center will pull down. It's very difficult to actually blow the paper over.
