Good one! I hear that Corona virus tee shirts are being offered incidentally.

I'm not any more concerned about this than the SARS scare.  Tragic some idiots are rooting for a market collapse.

I would stay away from many West cost places even without threat of Covid/Flu scares.  Anyplace it's okay to hand out needles and defecate in the street I'll stay away from.

Some folks were already here and setting up for the Boise Roadster Show slated to open tomorrow. It was cancelled this afternoon.

H1N1, Bird Flu, West Nile Virus, Swine Flu... This particular situation is most unfortunate.

Next 4 stops on the Hotwheels tour have been canceled and in talking to the Mattel representative this could be the end of a good thing. For those who  attended the Miami event with their cars, Congratulations this may have been their final tour or not !

Stateside a lot of sporting events are cancelling or postponing. Internationally the FIA has postponed the Bahrain, Vietnam and Austrian Grand Prix's so far, I'd be curious if LeMans even goes off this year.

Now SVRA has cancelled the Road Atlanta Pro-Am, the other scheduled races are still on, for now.

Given the state of Europe right now I would bet it will not be held or at least set back as far as possible
