I forgot to mention that Jeff Massey will there helping Nate on Saturday, and I think Stuart Beatson (our service manager and a former prominent BMW racer in his own era) will be there on Sunday. I may try to get up there on Sunday myself.

I believe Drew is talking Sunday. But some of us are going Saturday to the VA Roadside clean up and then heading to Summit afterwards.

Thanks for the info Steve. The ride from Maryland is Sunday morning, leaving at 10am, I have to work on Saturday

Do they race in the rain at Summit point?

by **BMWGirl** on Fri May 02, 2008 8:49 am

I'm not sure - I don't see why not - they just resurfaced the track so it should be in good shape?? Who knows??

by **drewalex** on Fri May 02, 2008 9:03 am

They raced in the downpour the weekend before last, and it was pissing down. They race unless severe weather is imminent.

by **BMWGirl** on Fri May 02, 2008 9:59 am

yeah - some of Nates best times has been in the rain!!!

by **drewalex** on Sat May 03, 2008 8:03 pm

Will be leaving the Dunkin Donuts at 10:15am if anyone is interested.

A quick report from Jeff Massey at the track on Saturday had Nate CRUSHING in the Thunderbike race, winning by something like 10 seconds.

In one of the other races on the HP2 Sport against the really fast boys, Nate jumped into first place before turn one and led for 24 laps. Unfortunately, it was a 25 lap race and he ran out of gas. You gotta finish to win...

Ran out of gas? Did he decide not to pit one last time? #-o

Sometimes it is a hard call when there is a good lead.

Remember, JVB was in the pit. I think he may have forgotten his refueling dvd :lol:
