Default Shenandoah DE

What's the word on this DE? The usual low turn out due to butt draggers comaplaing about the carousel

Carolyn is signed up and I plan to do a last minute or on-site if the 993 is ready. We are also signed up for the Lightning the following weekend (8 men, 9, and 10) with Riesentoter and plan to come to the Glen.

Cindy & I will be there. I've even volunteered to take on a 2nd student. Need as much practice as I can get before the Shenandoah LeMons race.

There's a lot to learn on that track. ("Is the next turn a left or a right?").

Don't they mercifully cut off the "Karussel" for LeMons?

Nope. They keep the Karussel in! And..........they also add the the kink before the bridge straight (turns 9, 10 & 11 below), instead of the "Range Straight".

Thanks, John. Please look for George Whitmore, as he has volunteered to run grid tech again for us.

Wish I could be there, but I can't. I really like that track....as does my car.
