Today's diary starts with an early morning drive up the 465, off at the wrong exit, then correcting myself to Guion Road, home of former Indycar driver Darren Manning and his new simulator venture iAdvance Motorsports.
You can check out our chat below, as we talk Darren's career, Rockingham, his US break, Indy 500, current day Indycar and his new venture. You can find Darren on Twitter @darrenmanning14 @iAdvMotorsports and on his website iadvancemotorsports.com
Off shortly to a media launch of a new book on sale now IMS, and shortly on Amazon, Lionheart: Remembering Dan Wheldon.
Media packed out the hospitality tent as drivers, Scott Dixon, Tony Kanaan, former team mate Dario Franchitti and team boss Bryan Herta shared some memories and talked about their time with Dan Wheldon over the years in Indycar. The full talk will be posted on YouTube later today so will add to this post when it appears.
