Well, i really wish i had something to race in it.... but it is nice knowing people that do.. hehe. I just got the call, i get to crew for a friends GT team at the 24... oooohhh yyeeeeaaaa... its an RX-8, but its all good. I'll still turn some of its wrenches, and change a couple tires on it if i have to :twisted:

sounds like a ton of fun

I got to "crew" a few years back on my friend's senior thesis for film school... I rigged cams on GT3 cup cars at the Watkins Glen Porsche Clash.... mmmm, cf doors, big turbos, rollcages, and airjacks. Oh, and never mount a camera to the front airdam, though the footage is QUITE interesting, hehe
sounds awesome john. remember we are pic whores to throw us a bone and take some pics.
Yea, this should be a LOT of fun. I've crewed on some teams like this in the past, and it is a whole lotta fun... but i've never done a 24... the most i've ever done is a 12... so i'm looking forward to this 8)

black: Oh yea, i know ;) Although, i'm going to be trying to source out a very small digicam this week, and a retractable lanyard for it. That way i can wear it on my belt, or in pocket, but if i need to drop it to do something very fast, then i'll be able to simply 'let go', and not worry about it.. hehe. But yea, i'm a pic whore to, so i'm definitely wanting to get plenty of pics of this :twisted:
Sounds like fun! I wish I could get that close to the action at some of these events!
hopefully he dosnt doze on the track while changing a tire :shock: :lol:
whats sleep?
dun need no stinkin sleep! :twisted:

And yea, you do get to 'nap'... while the car is out running if you need to....... but... i mean... seriously.. this is like the greatest race in the world practically. How could anyone -possibly- sleep with all that going on? haha!
youd be amazed at what i can sleep through :lol:
[nap. dynamite voice] LUCKY! [/voice]

Thats awesome John!

About time you got your hands dirty John! LOL!
I recommend this race to ANYONE who loves racing. I have worked tech and in the pits at this race for the past 15 years and wouldn't miss it for anything! See ya there! :wink:
I envy you! I am planning on catching some of the Rolex series at Watkins Glen this year. The guy that tuned my WRX and hopefully will re-tune the CRX is the tuner for TRG's Pontiac GTO. Tom Payn.

I wonder if there will be a Andy Wallace-Tony Stewart car again this year.
Well RUSTY Wallace will be driving with Danica Patrick this year! :wink:
