I am in New Orleans (Delta Region SCCA). You're right, I was at the Tour in Meridian. Came in third that year
Everyone in my region LOVED racing in Meridian. Hopefully they can bring back the Gypsy Queen. That event was more fun than the tour.
I think I've heard of the Birmingham track. Isn't that one of those private racing clubs? If it's the one I'm thinking about I heard it was a first class facility. How did you like running at NPR?
