Beat all the other car clubs for turnout which allowed us to be first in the parade laps and being called upon to grid the cars for the start of the race, hung out in Freedom Autosports transporter team area watching their TV and at turn 5 under their tent, took pictures with the VIR girls and 2 Playboy Playmates (Deanna Brooks & Pilar Lastra) who were there for the Playboy MX-5 cup and also have track time, Deanna Brooks may be racing also, gave away tons of freebies and best of all got to watch lots of great racing!
