November and December RRDI Activities
 

It is November already, we're back in the clutches of Standard Time and the sun is disappearing earlier and earlier from our rotary heavens each day. But the good news is the Dragon is hibernating for the winter and we start the Drive-Ins an hour eariler, at 5:30 PM, for the extra "daylight".

Yes we will be gathering at the Strickland Road Char Grill on the 2nd & 4th Saturdays most months. November 12th is the 2nd Saturday and it is this coming weekend. I have the RRDI shirts for those that stepped up and ordered them, and they will be the uniform of the day this coming Saturday. Yes shirts, clean shirts, will now be required at all future RRDIs, if you want to wear shorts, pants, or dresses, and shoes those are appreciated but not mandatory!

The fourth Saturday this month and in December will conflict with the Thanksgiving and Christmas weekends so each must decide if you want to spend time with the family that you were born in or your rotorhead family and those that truly understand you.

For those that went to Deals Gap last April, and met Phil Sohn, he has told me that he will be flying into Durham on December 16th to meet with Coach K and assist him with his game plans for the upcoming season :0). Anyone available that weekend to hold an impromptu RRDI while he is in town? I know December is a busy time for everyone.

A second shirt order is now in the works, along with the idea of getting some static window decals done for the RRDI. Anyone interested in working on this? Christina, we had talked about doing something for Mary's kids this Christmas, anymore you can tell 'bout the idea, is she receptive and if so, what do they need and how can we help?

Greg, you mentioned doing another weekend drive in November, That is a great idea, where you wanna go? Lance, from the RX8's, has mentioned some good driving east and south of Raleigh that he'd like for us to see.

Also, Holiday Laps at VIR will be coming up in early December, That is time on the VIR road course, and a lot of fun driving up and coming back. Johny, hopefully will have Tiffany there, he will do some driftin' exhibitions, and the rest of us will just try and keep outta his way. Save your money for a charitable donation and make plans to join us on that road trip next month, Johny will let us know when VIR makes the announcement.

Holiday Laps scheduled Dec.9th also if I'm in Tiffany dont expect much drifting.
