[drift matic]

i would if i could but im on the east cost

[Ripper]

it's on a sunday? i would've sworn it was on a saturday.

[Pennyman]

I can't. School starts the next day. Couldn't they have just waited one more week for Labor day weekend? I mean jeez, if that were the case, I'd be there in a heartbeat. If not that, then just have it on a Saturday to give me a day to drive home. I'm sure this is the case for more people besides me, and I think they should have taken it into consideration when planning this event. Oh well, I know who's gonna win anyway.
