I suspect Graham will be the cameraman while you drive the track, Ross. If you can get close enough to Bob's GT-R, Graham can make a video of you guyz following the great Bob Sharp around the Lime Rock racetrack. 8)

How cool is THAT?

I appreciate that offer, Frank, but I've got kids activities to deconflict as well. If my car was working I could make it with the flexibility to bail early if need be.

Okedoke. My family's trying to leave on vacation in the morning as well, which threatens to mess with my schedule if they don't get away on time. :?

My Z is off the road until I can get the exhaust tacked back up under it, but I have other cars I can drive to LRP. I just wouldn't make the parade lap in anything but a Z.

It's a pride thing, ya know? 8)

I just don't want to miss Bob's class if I can possibly help it.

Light showers aren't forecast until later in the afternoon. Our time together is from 11am to 1400 (2PM).

If you miss this, you'll kick yrslf until next year.

This is a fun event!

SATURDAY MORNING UPDATE:

The sun is peeking through, the skies have spots of blue...looks like the weather will be on our side today!

We will meet in our usual place: the upper field along the Jersey barrier (go through main entrance).

You will probably need to sign a waiver when arriving but there should not be an entry fee into the park. You do not need to bring your Z, so don't let that prevent you from coming and enjoying the day with Bob Sharp and your fellow club members!

And don't forget a few bucks for concessions and club merchandize.

I'm shooting to arrive by 10:30am, but official start time is 11am.

Looking forward to seeing everyone later this morning at Lime Rock!

- Jim

Was raining here in North Haven in the AM. So decided not to take the change in the rain. Have a great time at the track.

Well, 30 minutes before the class starts, and my family is still here. Guess I'm not making this year's Bob Sharp Day. :x

I've been cheated.
Been mistreated.
When will I be loved?

It sure was a "picture perfect" day - thanks for those photos, Ross. And anyone else who snapped some shots today, please post them for everyone to see and enjoy.

On behalf of the entire club: "thank you" Bob for another day of great stories, sage advice and fond memories...we're already looking forward to next year's!

- Jim

Thanks for adopting my GT-R into the line. It was nice to meet folks and take a few laps. -- Brian

Click on the link below to see the slide show of shots taken at Lime Rock Park Jun 30, 2013. Being the sub photog while Phil was on vacation is not an easy task. Phil you are surely appreciated.
