Ray, you beat me to it. I just put about four dozen photos from today's Shootout activities up on Photobucket. I'll hit the sack now - and in the morning, between bouts of frantic action when we've got hours of not much going on -- I'll post photos. I took a bunch during the drivers meeting. You'll see George Poteet and a couple of the guys from his crew, and you'll se Charles Nearburg and Mike Cook and Nancy (of course) and so on. I'd put 'em up now -- but I think you'll appreciate some information with the shots.
The morning is forecast to start with the Nish car running first. They'll be ready to head toward the north end of the track at first good light. Poteet and Main is ready to run, but Nish gets first dibs on the track. The Ack Attack bike just arrived out there about 3.45PM -- so probably won't run 'til late tomorrow - if that early. Richard Assen's bike is ready right now - and will run between cars, as will Leslie and Al Lamb. Jamie Wagner was just pulling in as we left the pit area about 4PM. Nancy's Ninjette 250 Turbo isn't due to arrive 'til Tuesday, so we've got some time to relax (?!!?) and keep you folks informed. Oh, yeah -- we're also the pit stewards, and I even got the nod when it came to moving a couple of porta-potties. It seems the pits were set up Saturday, in a dry area right off the freeway, and the toilets were installed. Then the wind blew Saturday night and moved the water to the pit area. Tarps were pulled up, trailers and equipment moved -- but the toilets were still in the swamp. So Jon, a/k/a SSS, a/k/a Potentate of Porta Potties, got to moving his minions closer to civilisation. Will the fun never end?
We'll be back with you folks in the morning. G'night, all. PS Thanks Ray and Moxnix for the help you're providing with coverage.
