Let's hope it isn't any of those lame NASSCAR drivers or their kids . . . I may have to pull my registration if one of those guys show up.

NASSCAR -

Cobra - Who can't wait to meet "the-sKiLlZ-MaStAh

Not the answer we are looking for.

Sounds like a challange to me. Cobra vs. Dale Jr. in identically prepared cars. I'd pay to watch that. How do we get this to the Earnhardt camp?

You can't confirm or deny that it is better?

BTW, I tell everyone when describing the coolness of NASA how sweet it was to have Jimmy Adams paddocked behind us

Grumpy,

I'm in H5. Are there any PS3 cars registered? I'd like to run in a class with some competition!

Oh, and to answer the other post, Jimmy Adams races a Porsche 996 in Speedvision Cup GT class. I believe he finished the year 7th in points, with a season best of 2nd at Lime Rock.

Damn, why couldn't it have been Britney Spears?!?! If it was Britney, I'd take her for a spin around the track, and then scotch guard the seat, locking her essence in FOREVER... LOL

Legend, they missed your hint I guess. I heard the rumor too. I used to run HPDE with him at Sears Point and Laguna before he became a pro. I would dig on seeing him at VIR.
Here lets make it fun. He is on SV all the time and his car is the smallest in the class.
