2014 Petit le Mans - Road Atlanta

Tomorrow morning I head to Road Atlanta for this year's race. It is going to be a fun 5 days.

Any members here that will be attending I will be at RV Site #13 at turn #6. Stop by for a cup.

What, no margaritas? lol. I live about 20 miles from Road Atlanta. I will have to keep that in mind for next year as we are taking the camper up to the mountains this coming weekend. I hauled a load of VP racing fuel to Watkins Glen earlier this year. What a fun time! I had never been and I really enjoyed getting in for free. The guys at VP are a great group!

No margaritas yet, but I am putting some Bailey's in my coffee this morning, does that count? Actually I'm resisting starting my generator this morning to brew that first cup because it is absolutely silent outside this morning. No other generators can be heard, of course there are only 8-10 sites occupied right now. Reserved sites at Road Atlanta can enter and setup on Tuesday and the non-reserved campers don't get in until this morning, Wednesday. It is a first come first serve situation with non-reserved sites and the line waiting to get it started forming this past Friday one of the gate guards told me. It was darn sure nice to bypass that line yesterday when I arrived. Of course I got some dirty looks from those camped out in the waiting line.

Now the biggest question of the day is when do I break the silence for a cup?

They start the daily practice races at 8:00am sharp each day. Silence is broken and I'm drinking coffee.

Sounds amazing! I was at VIR a few weeks ago with a friend, tenting, but decided next year I need to bring the camper and family out to a weekend. So much fun.

The 2014 Petit le Mans is history. It was a great week. We left Road Atlanta at 8:00am today and are now set up back on my home base site in Alabama. 250 miles and it is close to Miller time.

Hope you made it to your home base safe and sound, and enjoyed that Miller. Where will your next adventure take you?

Arrived with no problems Bill, except with a stiff back from sitting and then having to set up again. Oh well such is age I guess.

The races were great and I put 37 hours on my Onan burning a total of 15 gallons of gasoline. It never missed a beat the entire week. Now I'm back to my regular cycle of running it under load every 30 days for 1 hour and stabilizer in the gas obviously.
