Between Monday morning and this afternoon I made a trip from Toronto to Long Island N.Y.and back. Monday afternoon going southbound on I 81 there was a northbound GMCMH pulled off on the side in a construction zone. When I came passed the same spot Tuesday afternoon it was gone. Anyone know who it was and what happened ? Just inquiring. I couldn't pull over and if I'd gone to the next exit and gone back, I didn't know where I could pull over near the coach.

Next trip is to England. Not driving to there or when I get there. LOL !!!!!

England?

Little turn to the left, BIG turn to the right. Why are they on the wrong side of the road? How many times to you try to get in the passenger side?

That England?

Ken, unless I'm really lucky I won't get any laps on the track. Like most road courses, even in North America, the race direction on road courses is clockwise, eg Mid Ohio, Watkins Glen, Road America, Road Atlanta.
Laguna Seca is an exception.

Dolph, it seems Oval Track racing in England can be clockwise or anti-clockwise. Speedway motorcycle racing is anti- clockwise, legends car racing is anti-clockwise, but something called stock car racing is clockwise. Go figure !!!

Stirling Moss and Sir Jackie Stewart are both supposed to be there. I met Sir Jackie at a book signing of one of his books. It is a GOOD book.
