Nice Rich!

We ran our SuperCup series there this past weekend and the track was again amazing. It was a little damp to start, but with the help of the sun it turned out great. I'll have pics/video up soon.

The prices to fly from Manchester are fairly similar, the flight goes via Philadelphia. Heathrow adds more travel time anyway for the Northerners, although has the benefit of 30 planes taking off per minute. Or is it one plane every 30 seconds? I forget...

OMG swimming pool!!!!! ace. Im gonna be the first one to do a bomb in the pool hahahahaha

[Andy Moore]

I would reccomend the "Inn and Suites" as it might be a touch nicer. They are within a block of each other as far as location...and location to the track.
