Finish order is determined by number of laps, then time

We'll score the laps some of the time; some of the time we'll be on the honor system.

You can sleep:
* on our somewhat heated sunporch, which is enclosed
* in the bike shop, which can be heated to excess if you want the baseboard heater that high and are willing to keep the bay door closed
* in the garage, which can either be unheated with the door closed (to avoid wind) or heated by propane with the door open (to avoid asphyxiation)
* in the playhouse
* in your own tent on our lawn or pool area, which just doesn't sound like much fun at all

You can't use our kitchen; you can use our outside grill.

There are electric outlets in the garage, bike shop, sunporch and outside to plug in coffee makers, recharge lights, whatever.

We'll provide special 24 Hours of FSX numbers, so you keep your regular numbers neat and tidy.

Non-24 hour racers are welcome to come heckle, cheer, drink, split wood and help keep Beth awake all night again.
