Okay, folks, here's the first post in the thread that'll be for the SpeedWeek event itself - not just the runup. I'll set it sticky so it shows up at the top, and this will help non-Forum folks to find the good stuff about this year's event - with least hassle, I hope.
First comments: Did you know that "front row seating" in the pits is/was sold this year? I found out when we showed up and discovered that the first half mile or so of the pits is reserved. How'd I miss that?
Second: We went to Smith's and who should get out of his car but Marcello Escobedo? He wanted to make sure we knew - and told all of you - that the restaurant has moved. Ya gotta love it when a guy knows his customers well enough to greet 'em - and is a good enough businessman to always ask for the customers' business. We're going there tonight.
Enough for now other than to say -- We're HERE!!!
