I looked around at mapquest where the races are, looks like a good series other than a bit of a drive for most of them.
Its a shame we dont have more races down here closer to us. I guess you take what you can get.
By the way, im down here next to good ole Brunswick GA, on St Simons Island and have been to Eastman several times. Well actually, i've passed through Eastman several times.:D
