Heading out tomorrow morning for the 1453 mile trip to Gainesville, see everyone Tuesday morning. No snow here in Minnesnowta.

Hello everyone, we are here in Gainesville at the track. There are about 5 rigs here waiting inline. Word is they might start parking us later today. Larry and Patsy just pulled in, unloaded their street car and went to lunch. I'm sure you will here from them later.

Slightly off topic but does anyone have the run schedule for the Gator's? Trying to get time off to watch class. Thanks

Robert

The detailed run schedule is usually posted late afternoon or evening on the Monday of the week of the race. For Gainesville that will be next Monday late afternoon or evening.

Well we are in Gainesville stacked outside on the little paved roads. There are probably about 20 rigs here now. From what we have heard parking will begin about 4 tomorrow, but that is not official. We have not talked with anyone who knows for sure. And then another rumor was that only the ones who are testing are going to get parked. Whenever I hear something official, I will let you know or the Boss will!!

Here are a couple of pictures from today:

This is Larry on the roof of the motorhome pulling the fan motor out of the AC so he can order a new one! Scary!!

Here are Jim Marshall and Jim Roberts supervising! Actually Mr. Roberts got up there with Larry and helped a bunch. Thanks, guys! And Terry Nagel, also. Larry was going to put a ladder in the back of Terry's truck to get up on the roof, but someone was kind enough to loan him an extension ladder that worked much better!
