I just looked and I still have the spare timing lights. I am not going to this event. Can I meet up with someone going from Pinellas to give these to. Looks like this may be the time you could use the spares.

Well, I'm heading out early, at 5:50am. Heading East down Ulmerton from Starkey road. I have to be there for setup, so I don't have much time to spare to go an alternate route.

If someone can grab the spares, that's great. But, if we have problems, it's likely to be due to excessive rain more than anything else. If that's the case, we'll just abandon electronic timing and whip out the stop watches.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Cool. Well my printer died today, and of course I forgot to run off copies of the track map at work. SO, I'll be leaving the house around 5:30 to head to the office, Belcher and Nursery. Then heading down 60 to the veterans. I'll PM you my info if you are in the area, at 6am.

Im close to biff burger and will be leaving around 7:30
Racing against my NEON is like getting in a fight with a girl, if you win you, you can't brag about it, and if you lose, you hope nobody finds out!

Eric, are you going Ulmerton to Belcher? If so I could meet you at the corner of Ulmerton and Belcher. At that little gas station on the NE side of Belcher. I live very close to there.

Greg, If you could head down 66th to Ulmerton I could meet you at the Walgreens on the SE corner.
Eric or Greg if we can connect I would feel better if you guys had the spares. Let me know if either of you can meet close.
###Edit***
Sorry Greg, I was thinking Biff Burger was on 66th not 49th. Do you have a place we could meet if I can't connect with Eric? How will you get onto I75.

Good news! The forecast now says "cloudy" until noon. Then thundershowers with 50-60% rain coverage the rest of the day. So, it should at least by dry for setup, and maybe through lunch.
