    I love it when you post about the track, only to look over to seeing Kermit the frog freaking out. :36: :30:
    It just makes me laugh.

    Really lookin' forward to it as well. Never been on Patriot course, and the little 1.1 mile circuit has been described to me as like a Kart track for cars & bikes - with lots of elevation change. Here is our friend Mike Skeen navigating the course;
    http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...5481679130827#

    Be doing all this with no synchro for 5th gear (and vague suspicions growing as to 2nd gear's very initial synchro symptoms as to eventual deterioration as well) but then, I was rev-matching my azz off at CMP to compensate for 5th upshift, and I'll not use it on Patriot, and perhaps 3 times on full course (both long straights, and if I get T4,T5 & T6 right, then upshift to 5th - right before the climbing esses) - just take it easy and match it up, slip it in - aahhhh, ooooook (just tiny "catch"). Tranny gets replaced over Winter, so might as well get some laps out of it!

    In past I did not pay as much attention to wet skid pad work as I should have. I now understand the folly of that. My car control would be better for it, so I hope to get a chance to work at that on Sun. as well. 2nd-3rd gear and We Be DRIFTIN'!!! (with little of no tire wear - hot dawg!)

    I have already split a Villa some other folks, Wife be there Sat./Sun night, and my youngest Son+GF are staying with us as too (they are 1st timers).
    Here are the rates for the Villas
    Sat 11/27/10 Rack Rate 330.00 + (tx)33.00 = 363.00
    Sun 11/28/10 Rack Rate 305.00 + (tx) 30.50 = 335.50
    Typical there is [1]K, [1]Q, [2]T beds, and oodles of crash room otherwise.

    I believe the Lodge has gone up to $120 (2)T or (1)K beds, but they are nice too.
