After running the warmup, I just sort of wandered around the paddock visiting various people I haven’t seen in a while. I had a beer with Rob Carpenter and the Tennessee mafia, spent some time with Jonathon Roberts and Eric Peterson, and unsuccessfully tried to find Team BlenderBlaster. I was afraid HPT had [...]

Sorry for the absence of posts – I actually wrote a pretty long entry last night, tried to save it as a draft, and then found that it had disappeared into the ether. It was a fairly crabby post, so maybe that’s for the best.
I ran the warmup event yesterday. It’s always an slightly scary [...]

We stayed up talking till [...]

I got to Nick’s at about 7:30 local time. I was pretty lucky with the weather – it was quite overcast, but I mostly got drizzled on. There were a few heavy rain showers but I drove out of them fairly quickly.
Nick and Anna have rolled out the red carpet for me – [...]

Many apologies to all my fans for not updating the blog this week. I’ve been running around like a course worker during the CP heat. Anyway, who wants to read about what errands I have to do before laaving?
I’m hitting the road this morning, hopefully at 10am. The plan is to get to St. Louis [...]
