Seeing lows in the low to mid 50's being reported on pretty much all of the weather forecasting channels throughout the week. Highs in the mid 70's. Very low rain chances as well. Looking good to me!
We're almost into the 7 day weather forecast window so things should be getting very close to believable. |

Just received my 1/4 bushel green peanuts from the mid Georgia peanut farm. Currently in the fridge. Will start boiling on Wednesday or Thursday. Just depends on my mood and any requests.

Thankfully it wasn't this weekend, damn it's hot in the sun today. But got my extra canopy repaired, found a dude in Indiana who sells sacks of bolts and bits for pop-ups cheap.

Sometimes discussions between colleague drivers are about spectators and marshals at least those having particularities rather easy to spot even from the cockpit when racing. And guess what, we can sometimes smell the pleasant smell of the bbq. Sausages, T-bones replace for a while tires and brake pads. As spectators and marshals please apply yourselves!

Petit Le Mans 2024
I so want one. It’s worth the walk up any hill. I’m near Silverstone I’m going to practice by going up and down Hanger Straight.

sitting here at work watching the clock.
8:00 A.M. departure tomorrow for the track should get us there by 10 because we'll be traversing the 75->285->85 traffic in Atlanta. |

Last year everything fit for me on the way down. On the way back it didn’t, despite consuming a lot of it!

Well more good news. Local schools are closed Wednesday and Thursday due to the red stapler. So now it looks like we're leaving the jacksonville area late Wednesday night

Especially at Road Atlanta where something is bound to be broken, bent but salvageable.
Loaded up everything but the coolers, they're in to make sure they fit but newish truck and new topper so bit more space. Gonna do an odd one for my usual and pick up most of the food and beverage on the way out and ice. |

Everything is packed in the motorhome, the van and the golf cart except the coolers for peanuts and crab legs. Plan to arrive at around 7:30am.

Looks like we're skipping this year to take care of home and family with the incoming storm. Sucks but there'll be another Petit next year. Wishing everyone loads of fun.

Yeah. Sorry to hear this and all the best. I don't know how many more hurricane seasons the Gulf and Southeast can handle.

Also, the wind she's ablowing this afternoon. And already a decent number of folks in the family camping area. And the line was 3 wide at noon to get in tomorrow. Not the craziest I've seen but it's filling quick |
