There was talk earlier of walking the track maybe Friday. Plans are a little fluid at this point but everything will all work out once we get together on Wednesday at the golf course.

I think the shut down the track multiple times during the week (especially early in the week and after qualifying) - and open up the public roads. It's pretty easy to drive the Mulsanne, park and check out (or drive) the chicanes, Indy-Arnage, and the straight leading up to the Porsche curves.

Verizon's $10 "Travel Pass" is KILLER. You can easily blow through $10 in a brief phone call under the $0.20 per minute rate.

I will try and get a more full run down tomorrow, but today was a great day.

Picking up in the UK





Heading to the chunnel



Chunnel Ride


Spotted on the motorway in France



Outside our hotel in Belgium for the evening



This crazy guy saw a video of us driving through Belgium on Facebook and went up and down the motorway until he found us. Took some cool photos!

GT101 with the assist, changed my fog lamp bulb which was burnt out, and they added the aux jack to Matt & Danielle's car.

At least the fuel in the UK was cheap.

Waiting in line for the Chunnel.

Needless to say the cars were popular in the lorry and tall vehicles section.

Tunnel was great except for the lengthy delay. Easy in/out, wide lanes with plenty of clearance.

Gentlemen,

#34 arrived in perfect shape and without a scratch. Weather has been great so far and Charley and I are having a blast. It's great to see the reaction of everybody here to our 10 year old cars. This whole scene is too cool. I can't believe we're doing this Mav!!!! It's time to buzz the tower.
