Anybody else going? More importantly, anybody bringing an "Easy-Up"?

Nope, maybe some year I'll show up to that event in my car (when it's done).

I have to ask, what's an easy-up?

Not an ez-up but the price is right, I'll pick it up tonight and we'll try it out.

Great price, sale ends Saturday. I might just buy one before sale ends (no way to get it to the track, though). You should bring yours up on Saturday morning, so we can test it out before you before you need to use it yourself.

Good call on the Easy Up. I could have used one Monday/Tuesday. In a pinch, we used the far side of the paddock, in the tree line. It also kept us out of view, which was probably preferred by the Ferrari folks!

I heard the Ferrari club put on a great event; but attendance was down. We need to work on improving their attendance. I have an easy up and can borrow another one -- I think we will have three (or four of them together at VIR). BJ's has some Easy Ups as well; although I'm not sure that they are on sale. Yoda might be bringing one and probably Michael as well.

I saw quick blurb on the news that they had captured Trakrat in Belgrade - do they allow him internet access, or is he already out.
