Damn you and your ability to do track days at will.

I'm jealous.

Re: Autobahn Sept 2, 3, and 4



Well, I spend my all winter saving money and as long as I pay my track days cash, this girl is going. So far I have 17 + 3 more to go and would love to do Barber in November and maybe Putnam October 13 & 14. I plan way ahead of time. The kids dad and I work on a monthly schedule so he tells me when he is out of town, and i book around his schedule.

Next year, it will get even better.

For my 40th bday, I'm going to a road racing school for 3 days.. that should start my season on the right track for 2007.

I've really been blessed with my track days and can't say enough for the help of few AMA pros that have been there for me this year. I have no intention to slow down.

Ok, I will.. Be nice to have someone to ride down with. Not really for company but for splitting the cost.

Going alone on all those track doesn't get cheap and can be lonely at times. And to sleep in my SUV messes up my hair... J/K

My wife is going too. She hasn't decided yet, but she'll probably ride in the intro on the 11th. She doesn't think she's ready for the bigtime tracks like Barber yet.
