Road America

#1 Post by Timothy Phillips »

The vintage races at Road America are next weekend. I'll be driving my C down and camping with my 12 year old son. Probably will park during the daytime at the paddock along the downhill to turn 5 where the old P cars gather. Anyone else going? Look for me in a Champaign yellow C coupe with green interior.
Tim :D

There are at least 11 356s entered. Paul Swanson, George(s) Balbach, Vic Skirmants, and others. Stop by the pits to see some of us.

I will be there from MN. Ruby Red/Black SC with Mahle wheels. Tom Spiegel from the southern WI 356 group usually manages the list for passes to get into turn 5 which are then available for purchase from Gate 4.

Cliff,
Thank you for the invitation. My son is 12 and the pits would probably push his adolescent car junky self to the edge! I'm 50, I'll try to be a bit more restrained.

Mark,
I did the turn 5 thing a few summers ago. I don't remember needing a pass. Probably just failing memory on my part, I will contact Tom and see if he still has one available.
Thanks,
Tim

Tim, if you bring your son by I will put him into the car for some pictures. Any Dads are welcomed to do the same. We are in the upper south paddock.
