I know the one SCCA dude towed her and her car home but other than that they didnt do much. I had a blast and will be joining you guys at more of these.

I was a long day for 3min of tire shredding fun

Maybe we can run in two classes next time. That will make being there the whole day worth it.

I don't think they let you do that... Maybe if your running in different cars, or sharing a car with someone in a different class. Maybe Marc would have some more insight on that?

overall, Philly was great (my, and my wife's first time there)....

stayed at RittenHouse (caught a 50% off deal, so only paid $250/night )...
ate at Estia, and Devon, and Le Croix...

Did the duck tour, 2 horu walking tour and then on our own.... South street is a little funny - everyone and their grandma is ridin on 23's, and blasting music. is that a 'sunday special' in philly, or an every-day special ??

overall, amazing weekend, except all those phillies jerseys... almost got my *** kicked a few times

I have no doubt that you'll get the W out of our group.

that silver evo with the bodykit is always down there.. hes not on evom as far as i know
and yes, thats south street, all the time. only a few blocks from my place too.
ye i wanted to go to the places u mentioned for breakfast, but it was too far to walk from our hotel...

btw, the highlights of the weekend were:

- standing in the halls where 'democracy' was reinvented, and our country born...
- seeing the Kottonmouth Kings tour bus unload on South street (they performed on Sunday at the theatre on South st), and watch as their entourage got into an argument with a car that wouldnt move for their bus to park....
- seeing a crew shoot an episode of Cold Case, on a small street, near Betsy Ross' house....
- walking outside the RittenHouse in the morning, to find 2 Bentleys, a Rolls drophead coupe, a 911 GT3, and a 956 speedster (looked real, not replica) parked in front... i guess there was no room for my S6... or coulda been the NY plates
- one of the tour guides telling me, he is a NY yankees fan.... not exactly the Mets, but close enough, and hey, at least not the phills!!
