Daytona Speedweeks as a whole 24 Hours thru the Daytona 500
NHRA Finals at Pamona
Formula 1 at Monaco
Silver State Classic
Bonneville
These would constitute a "pie in the sky" dream fullfilment.
A more realistic list would be
NHRA Southern Nationals at Commerce
A Darlington race renamed the Southern 500
Turkey Rod Run
ECTA Standing mile in Maxton, NC
Open track day at either Roebling Road or Carolina Motorsports Park
Robert's 1969 Camaro - 2002 LS1/T56, 10pt cage, Global West Stage III front suspension, HTH truck arm rear suspension, Sprint Cup 9" full-floating rear end, Fikse Mach V 17" up front 18" in the back and still working on it...

Did anybody see the replay lastnight on SPEED of the Monaco practice session? INCREDIBLE! Like they said last night, "Monaco is one of those tracks that you realize that no matter how much practice you could have you probably couldn't do what those drivers are doing." It is insane just how fast those guys are going from the tunnel and through the twisties along the waterfront.
