[TPR] 2011 Open Road Race Season opening... time to start prep

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Who has a fast car ready for ORR this year?  Pantera, GT-40, Miata, 
P-p-p-p-p-Porsche...., um... Corvette?
Who -will- have a fast car ready for ORR this year?

It's time to start thinking.  The first ORR is coming up in April, the 
Big Bend Open Road Race.  Are you ready?

Get out your checklists.  Two weeks before the race is not the time to 
start thinking about new tires or whether you should change the clutch.  
Strike while the iron is cool in this case, as in winter time 
hibernation in the garage when you're not driving the car.  Quit laying 
in the easy chair watching Oprah with the winter sun shining through the 
window.  Take an overdose of Vitamin D and hit the garage, you'll feel 
so much better in the morning.

Don't make me let the Dawg out of his cage.

So What's on your checklists?*
What do you do to prepare for a race day?*
What do you do immediately after a race day?*

Let the bench racing begin.
