Both Thursday and Friday are free days because they are inspecting vehicles. Pins will be available, probably starting Wednesday. If you know you will need the week passes, stop by and purchase them from me at Land's End. Also, if you know you won't have enough passes for your crews, get those early too. Just like the early inspections, the earlier you purchase your pins, the shorter your wait on Saturday. Remember, you'll only get 4 pins after going through Tech. Don't forget the one you just got in the mail!! Forgetting it will cost you an extra $40 for a pin and you'll be needing them starting Saturday.
Remember, the lane I create in the center of the road is for you racers, it is also the only lane that will be open first thing in the mornings for you to get onto the salt...no crowding, no pushing, no shoving, no jumping the line, I have no problem stepping out in front of you to stop you. The person in front of you is just as special as you are and deserves the same respect. You've waited all year to come back to the salt, so don't lose control the last 100 feet of asphalt!! I'll get you out there, but I'll do it safely!!!
Lineups at the gate can start around 5:30, but no one will go out until an official (Dan Warner or Roy Creel usually) says to open the gate. You are all important to me, and I WILL keep you SAFE whether you like it or not!!!!!
I'll be on the salt on the 7th!! HURRAY!!! It's almost RACE TIME!!!!!
See you there!!
Stay Safe, Go FAST, Stay Upright!!
