Good to hear from you Steven! I was hoping to make it to Lakehurst for Aug 1 and 2 but may reconsider doing Labor Day instead. If Steven shows up I'd have to hide my work table to keep all my stuff from disappearing!
If I make it to Lakehurst it'll be to fly F1L and maybe F1M. Are the Labor Day dates going to be okay as general record trials? I wouldn't want to cause any friction with the team selection process.
