Sunday, April 1 - 9amEST.  Since people still have frame rate problems with
Road Atlanta, we'll run Monza.  Another reminder: The US changes from Daylight
Savings time at 2am on the 1st.  We set the clocks from 2 to 3.   So the race
will be an hour earlier for the Euros.

This race may be the last 'open' GP race I host.  It depends on the smart
driver/idiot ratio...

p.s. The next race will be at Mexico - I've already decided...<g>

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you

Okay, we just changed this weekend, so it will be the usual 6 hr diff.
That would make it 1500 hours CET.

Mexico? Mexico!!!

(I hope my pit crew is ready for the race).

No it won't... we're already on summertime. Time gap between EST+DST and
CET+DST will therefore be the usual 6 hours. I say again: 6 hours. Making
the race time 15hr00 CEST (Central European Summer Time). That time again:
15hr00 CEST.

Jan, are you sure it's such a good idea for us to remind people to show
up? Just wondering...

Possibly... then again: would be zero fun if nobody showed.

And I still lose an hour's sleep.  I'm gonna try, though.

Monza does tend to bring the idiots out of the woodwork...  <g>

Maybe in two hours I can learn to love Mexico... LOL

I'm not very good at Mexico, but it could probably produce good racing.  Maybe
we can fight it out for last place<g>.  You'll have more than two hours to
practice, though. :-)
