By my count, there will be 33 WDCR members competing next week in the SCCA Solo Nationals in Lincoln, Neb. Because of the power of the internet, it should be easy to keep track of everything from the comfort of your computer (tell the boss you are researching social relationships or something).
The very unofficial WDCR Solo Nats Blog. Danny Kao, Clyde Kaplan and I (and maybe a guest or two) will be posting our daily musings.
SCCA Sololive. Based on what I saw during the year, the SCCA should have near real-time results posted online.
