Well dammit. I showed up at like 7 tonight and could not find where the f*** everyone was parking. So maybe you can point me to where we shall be parking. I saw the Corvette Corral, the PorschePlatz, and the Acura place.
Where are we supposed to be?

Well give me a call like when you are leaving your place William. I am probably going to stop somewhere ahead of time and eat some breakfast. There is a Cracker Barrel past Road Atlanta as well as a Waffle House, and a McDonalds. I wanna get there kind of early so I potentially get some good pics of all the action.
I was also contemplating bringing my dvd camera.

Yeah, I heard the Mazda wrecked during practice as a "driver error." That sucks cause when I saw the pic on here of what you were racing, I was like "Hellz yea!" Anyhow, it was a blast. I came to late Friday but was there all day Sat. I missed all the good wrecks but still, it was nice.
The one thing I want to gripe about which isn't your fault by any stretch, but why in God's name does a chicken Gyro the size of my fist cost 8 dollars?
Hey Beaver, pics?

Awesome race. Had a great time. I couldn't believe how packed it was this year though, wow.
I will say though that Mazda (or RA, who ever is responsible) needs to get on the ball with the Mazda corral. It was really hard to find despite both of us knowing our way around the tack like the back of our hands. Didn't expect it to be so far back and at a dead end. Also, every other corral had someone guarding the entrance except ours. It seems like we saw more than enough of those pink shirted volunteers walking around doing nothing that at least one of them could have stood there to keep the corral in order. We BARELY found a spot in the corral because about 75% of the cars in there were NOT Mazdas. The huge SUVs, trucks, random Honda Accords, etc. barely left us room. Thank goodness for a small car. I'd like to see a Ford truck try to park in any other corral. Yeah... that's not happening.
Thanks again for putting us on the list. It really made our week after a crappy start to it last Monday.

Thanks again Marlon! I never made the coral though. Couldn't find it and then just parked it by the hill. I musta saw JennB and Frohawk(SP?) about 17 times driving around. You guys were everywhere. Four of us were in a dark grey CX7 with a mazdaspeed plate frame but it didn't really stand out.

I saw Frohock (I believe is the spelling). Didn't he have the silver boosted miata? Anyhow, yes thanks for the tickets, lots of fun. It was funny, the lady at Will Call was like "Name? Who are you with?" I was like... Uhhhh.... myself? Thank God I have a unique last name cause one lady was like "Ooooh here it is, you're with the Mazda people."
