Topic: Fueling in you pit!!! REALLY?

Just got this from Nick Pons

    Fueling: Allowed ONLY at Thunderhill's credit-card pumps; or on the adjacent        concrete pad; or in your own paddock space.

COOL!!!

Yeah, I forgot to add the drip pan requirement--gas eats asphalt, and we don't want to get stuck with the bill.

Remember that you need a minimum of one fueler and one extinguisher man dressed in full fire gear.

Anyone who was at Buttonwillow--the rules are essentially identical.

And tech guys, like me, will be watching that you nutjobs are safe with the fire extinguisher and such.  We don't want to see any Lemons Flambe.
