Columbus is about six hours from Huntsville, dunno what part of Alabama you're in but you could come up here Wednesday night and crash, then head up with the Columbus crew on Thursday. There should be at least four Columbus guys with Supras by then

21-24 sounds like we could make just depends on how things turn out.
How hard is it to put a newborn car seat in a supra?

I'll be in the same situation. my baby is due july 15th but the wife thinks its too much hassle to take a newborn to the racetrack and hear all the loud cars and have to try and breastfeed there. the good thing is I'll for sure have off of work :) if you end up bringing ur kid, maybe I'll be able to talk my wife into coming too with ours and she'll have someone to chat with :)

Pfft, babies can sleep through anything! My son slept through Thunder Over Louisville (= biggest North American fireworks show), including the finale, when he was 6 months old. :)

Well it sounds like we both have the same amount of convincing to do.
I had my girlfriend read your post and she is agreeing with your wife.
I told her that on the track day they could make friends sit away from
the loud cars.:dunno:

Last year Nelson had us a block of rooms in a very nice nearby hotel to SP at a very good rate. Nelson is a great guy he won't steer you wrong!

Thanks for the kind words! I still remember the look on your face when I gave you a ride in my MKIV. Hope to see you this year! If you thought last year was great, this year will be even better!!!
