Pretty crazy thay 10-20 cars flaked. As well @thejevans? Does anyone know if he's dead or just Canadian? Kinda weird everyone went awol. You couldn't ask for better race weather, vantage points and company. I've met a rack of cool people while here.

I wish I was able to get up there for the race, but I've been watching since lap 20ish. The last few laps have been shitty in turn 1.

Parkin actually worked out just fine. You'd be surprised how many people walked by the exotics to check our cars out. I'm definitely in for this next year if B-more decides to keep it goin. Sorry I missed y'all again @ette and @disgruntld. We can make a better plan next time so far off travelers like yourselves have some kinda support. Y'all can always feel free to pm for any kind of help needed. |

I stopped and talked to you with my dad on Saturday. I was good to meet you in person.

I'm alive. I called and emailed Pat all last week, but didn't get contacted back by Pat until late Friday night via Email. And by that point, I wasn't going to pay full price and was pretty furious. I couldn't even get any information on how people were supposed to pay, where they would get the tickets, or any other details. I didn't end up making it on Saturday because I needed to cool off, so I played paintball instead. Sunday, I had a free ticket lined up and planned to go, but that supplier flaked on me at the last minute as well. Pat works for RaceOn Baltimore, the group that put the Grand Prix together, and it's very frustrating that this process was handled the way it was to the point of more-or-less failure. I apologize for not updating during the weekend but I don't like posting while I'm heated, so I stayed away from computers for the weekend. I hope everyone who went, had fun, and I'm sorry for any frustrations my absence caused.

Just glad that you're alive and well brother!! No worries. This kinda stuff happens when ever you have more than one head involved. Next go round I can take lead or we can work through the logistics with multiple heads on our end.
I was able to make it and had a blast. My main concern with next time is the far off travelers. I will make contact lists with screen names, real names, phone #'s, emails etc.. This way if one head gets shut down we have multiple heads in place to follow through with the operation. Thanks for trying to take all of this on by yourself and the efforts that you put forth. |

@thejevans
Same here. Kudos for keeping your head throughout. I showed up because I pretty much live at the Grand Prix. Thanks again for putting this together even though it was a bit of a SNAFU, I had a blast. If you're doing this again next year, I'm definitely in. |
