Gateway International Raceway, Friday at 1 PM, Saturday at noon, AAA stage in Nitro Alley with Robert Hight and me. Long time fan or first time visitor, pretty sure you will learn something if you stop by.

They are all good, but with Hight as the co-host, it might be the best yet.

[my friends call me Zappy]

If yer goin to the race give one of these a try. PJ went to one and spoke highly of it. I only have one more race on my "to-do" list this year, (maybe) but if I go
and if they have one, I'll give it a try 4 sure.

For now I don't think it will happen on Sunday, everyone is focused on winning the race, and we do it before the first session of the day, so that would either be during the track walk, or pre-race/driver introductions. And once we start racing there is just not time between rounds.

Haven't heard for sure yet, but I think yes. It's a AAA race and the Auto Club likes the program.

Alan,
they should film it and play chosen exerpts on the qualifying shows

also save some film for rain delayed races instead of rehashing last race coverage....

Even better, post it to a YouTube account in it's entirety, each and every one. I personally would love to spend hours listening to different racers and tuners discussing the state of the art racing technology in an easy to consume format. I think it's one of the best ideas in a long time. Nothing gets people seriously into an auto sport more than learning exactly how impressive a feat it is to actually pull-off.

As for the constant replay of previous races, I've never liked it. There should be a bit of mystery. If you didn't tune in last week, tough cookie. Go find the results. You better start watching if you're interested. A cat doesn't chase easy prey. Put a bit of challenge into it, and voila, you have an energized predator. Make people WANT to catch it.

Are you guys planning on doing a session in Vegas Alan? I'm flying out to the race with Doug Kalitta that weekend, but thinking doing a session with Del would be pretty awesome, especially with his driving and tuning expertise!

And I would love to bend your ear on that Mustang you've got working!
