Re: JenningsGP fever....need cure!

I am suffering from insomnia, total lack of concentration at work, high levels of adrenelin, excitment etc etc. I wish there was a Start Trek Transponder that will take me to Jennings rights now.

Is anyone else suffering form similar symtoms .

Anyway...I leave in the afternoon today. Have a save trip to all of you and see you soon.

Re: JenningsGP fever....need cure!

soon that insomnia, total lack of concentration at work, high levels of adrenelin, excitment etc etc will be replaced by feelings of sore legs, sore back, and sore arms accompanied by bouts of jubilation, fond memories, new friends and a strong desire to get back to the track after you start walking right again. I don't walk right for a week after a trackday, 2 days back to back and I'll need some serious massage therapy!

Ditto, I did ZERO leg workouts this week because I know I'll need all the endurance I can get!

If you are moving around in (over the seat) the seat like you should be, your legs will be the first to go!

You guys have been doing tracks for a while. Seems like the excitment comes every spring and doesn't wear off with experience. Thought it was reserved only for newbies like myself.

I am looking forward the sweet pain.

I am feeling it. On the exercise bike, I started daydreaming about being on the track, looked down and my heart rate had shot up 10 bpm

good point HG, you guys should bring some ibuprofen or pain killer of you choice, just in case. It really does help...

You people are making me sick.

Looking forward to the play by play from Phatblock and the pics of the event afterwards.

I'm bringing tequila.

I'm leaving work early to go home and finish loading stuff, including the bikes! Can't wait!!! No, the excitement of doing a track day never wears off, no matter how many you've done. Welcome to the addiction!

Too bad this one is so far for your GraffixMan. That was blast last year. Maybe we'll all do Grattan again in the future.

Yeah it would have been great to do some lead changes with you on the track again Yeller. *Those last few sessions with you were great.* *Oh well, Formula Racing School next month will help make up for it. I wonder if they would let me take some laps on the 929?

The cure is to hit the road now and arrive early and work on your tan before the event begins.
