Yes, all my homies, especially Mac users, can come down for a visit when the F1 races are here.

I have only one guest bedroom. The other two were turned into offices. We do however have a very comfortable floor. And no Peter, you're not sleeping with me and Poppy.

In the mean time, I'm working on keeping my skills sharp at Harris Hill Road. I have an event there this weekend. I'll try to remember to take video. It's a fun, albeit slow, 1.8 mile course just south of Austin (30 minutes) in San Marcos. In the TDI, my top speed was only about 85 on my best run. In the P-car, we'll see. I'm headed there Friday to get acquainted with the course in the Boxsera. It's a very tight course, with a really wicked elevation change. I wouldn't ski down it assuming you could ever get snow on there.

As for the web site, we're getting there. Not all the features are going to work right away, but it should be back up within the hour.

That's fine. I was thinking "replacing" rather than "joining" you anyway...

Sweet that means your wife gets the car and she already likes me more than you.

Oops, but she won't come to the track. BTW, what does L say about all this (M may not like me or you all that much, but she does like L!).
