A Smattering of Notes

Yes, I've been back to the Nürburgring since the last post here. I've got some info on my last visit "in the works". Not that there are a lot of you out there awaiting my updates fervently.

In lieu of that update... some notes:

1) I have been following Dennis Palatov's blog for a while (probably around 2005 for me). He's developing a version of his DP4 Pikes Peak this year. He could probably use your help.

2) Because of my following of DP, I found out about /Drive...
and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent watching it since. I was a lurker on Driver's Republic, back before it tried to go all Web3.0 (i.e. we will use your data against you) and fell apart. So, it's nice to have an easy place to get my Chris Harris fix. Now I just need to find an automotive eMag that has an equivalent level of photography that Driver'sRepublic used to have.  Oh, yeah, and Leo Parenta (sp?) has been quite entertaining as well.

3) OneLapofAmerica is kicking off soon (two weeks!?!?), so I figured I'd collect some blog links that I want to keep track of (that I have so far)... and you might enjoy their... tribulations too:
Rick & Pop: http://oldcrowsonelap.blogspot.com/
Tony & Sebastien: http://evergreen1lap.blogspot.com/
Tim & Stephen: http://onelap.rochesterdsm.org/
Jim: http://onelapadventure.blogspot.com/
Robin Sparrow: http://onelapforlife.blogspot.com

As always, there's a certain amount of "horsing around" going on in the entrant's list.
It'll be interesting to see how it actually shakes out.

One interesting point (w.r.t. entries): Pete & Matt have ditched their 328i for an '02 Vette.
