We likely won't be bringing the beast trailer - too many ants. Working on fumigating it before the ChumpCar race at VIR. Now we have to find a room.

Scott, I assume you made it home from AR without major issues?

Bob, they will provide every sticker that you "need". They traditionally have Toyo stickers if that is the tire you plan to run. If you plan on taking home Mazda money, you will need to provide your own Mazdaspeed sticker and a pair of Mazda stickers.

Bob, you'll need to register for the contingency program(s) for which you'll be competing, if any. Log into your account on SCCA and look under the contingency tab. Tech has all of the stickers you'll need (ideally).

Steve, yeah no real problems other than the truck sucking fuel like mad that first 100 miles. Evened out after that and did OK on the hills. Still working on diagnosing the problem, but traveling for work again tomorrow. Hopefully just the oil that needs to be changed.

I'm out,logistics of getting a set of tires to the site seems to be a no go. If I drove up on what I want to race on prob will not make back home after cording. Sort of puzzled, but I think ants are coming my way. Any idea for a rescue? (help)

Can you get a trailer hitch? I bet someone could sell, or maybe even loan, you a tire trailer.

Stuff the tires in the car. Did it several times when I had a Miata...that car was made to hold four 195 Toyos.

So, nobody else from our region is going?? Or nobody has offered to tote your wheels? ?
I surely hope it's my first option and not the latter .. I don't think we have gone any where and not carried something for somebody..

Nope!!!! I'll take that as what some club members think......It's OK I'll concentrate on club season ending points. Right now I have a chance on getting a win. Pissed, yes. But I hope they learn!!!! Help only comes so far.............
