"Live" from Atlanta double points race 2013 - Page 2

The place is filling up fast! There are cars here from out of div. 3 and 4 and of course 2 also. No idea as to how many, but I have seen 20 or more stockers already here.

We talked to the guard when we came back from Sonny's Barbq and he said they would be parking all night. He will take your name and # and you will go back and pay in the morning. You will be on your own to find a spot, but there are plenty still left!

We are riding down 85 right now about 4 hrs away that's good to know... I'm glad they will let us in

Good luck Brandon.

Only got a couple of pics between showers:

Do you think he was looking at the centerfold in the Cars, Inc. trailer?

These guys said they were "scheming against their wives"! I don't know about that!!

I missed Karen in her dress! It started raining about the time I started down to tech. We will see what she wears tomorrow!!!

We are about 70 miles north on 85 riding through a bad bad storm

While yall are doing that, myself and a select group of friends will do what we have done for 27 years, and that is fish the La Maison de Lune fishing tournament. About 40 of us who have gotten old. Somehow we always catch fish, and we always catch beer. We are breaking in Kevin Helms as Beer Boy (a coveted title). He is under the watchful eye of Johnny F. Roy, Supreme Beer Boy of the Lune and Absolute Commander Beer Boy of Krewe of Hurcules, and Kevin's future is cloudy at this time. Kevin needs help in noticing the angle of the can, the clank when it hits the surface, and the general speed of consumption. No one should have to ask for a beer. Good thing he is a good race car driver. The English on that is 'House of the Moon', so use your imagination. Good luck to everyone. Looks like the horrible weather has subsided.

After a night of lots of thunder, lightning and rain, it is a beautiful morning here in Commerce, GA. So glad we decided to park on the pavement!

I would like to wish my husband of 43 years a "Happy 63rd Birthday" today! A good birthday present would be for all you guys that he has to race this weekend, to let him win the round. Now I know all of you will be nice and do that for him! LOL Oh, I am baking chocolate brownies later today for his "cake". So come over and have 1 as long as they last!

Everything starts off this morning at 11 with Super Street, followed by Stock. We are supposed to get 3 runs today and another in the morning, then run all of the first race tomorrow. Then on Saturday 2 runs, then eliminations for Race 2 of the weekend. Should be a good weekend all around if all goes well.
