Red's next romp will be at Atlanta Motorsports Park in early September. That's Unit's most very favorite track, she likes to leave the belts loose and get slung around all inside the car. She LOVES it. A roller coaster, and I like it too. Fun with fuel. And Unit gets to ride along on the track.
That event for us is a track day credit from way back this year when we couldn't go to Road Atlanta after we had already bought in because Red was broke. Determined to do RA anyhow, we went with another outfit later. The ultimate truth, Red's not fast enough to do Road Atlanta, not even with the blower and the Rousch suspension. The folks that turn out for that track on any weekday are just plain crazy fast. Red was in the way. Again. And plus, that particular outfit didn't even let Unit ride along on the track that weekend, a two-day event.
But anyhow, I got home from work today, the AMP experience has been so far away on the calendar like it wasn't ever going to happen. But we're getting there on the clock so I reserved a motel room in Dawsonville, called them this afternoon.
It turns out, Unit had already reserved us a motel room. So for a little while today, we had two rooms at the same motel for the same two nights. Unit discovered it cleaning out her mailbox...We could even take Kenny the Cat, he could have his own room. We can strap him in the back seat like we do the cooler for the trip down the highway, and he'll love the hills and curves on the track and getting slung around like an astronaut on a centrifuge. I'm sure he'd love it. If I could just teach him how to check the tire temps after a run, it would be worth it. Another pit crew member.
Naw, cancel one of those two motel rooms.
