OH I completely understand. I'm sure if you could go back to the OLD OLD forum you'd find posts from me asking about the 2003 and 2004 and 2005 schedules and when they're coming out.
Use this time to focus on family and the other things in your life that make going to the track possible. If you have kids, I heard there's a REALLY good new movie that came out yesterday I bet they'd like to see. ;-)
It's this time that helps us all find balance in our lives between work, track and family.
Another idea.
Get a dirt bike and go find some trails. It's not the track, but it's a place to be on two wheels and keep your skills sharp and develop new skills. Get used to the rear breaking loose so when it happens on the track,
it won't spook you so much...you'll just stay on the gas and throttle through it.
It's been pretty mild so far this winter in Maryland, so my 5 year old and I have had some time to wreck my back yard lawn with our dirt bikes on occasion here and there this Fall.
I'm kind of thinking about a trip out to Hatfield and McCoy to do some trails with him if this mild weather continues.
