How will the scoring work? Need both days to get annual points?

[jcox07]

It is like last year, both days times count to see who wins.

[integra55]

i.e. .... both days added together ? (that's how I remember it )

[ke0ki2k]

Add both days like a Tour event. I believe we're gonna have permission to run the day-1 course in reverse on day-2. Gonna iron out course & barrier details tomorrow.

[TedV]

course and barrier details is what I need to know about so I can spend my time on the shifter kart, Formula Ford, or rallyX Rocco

so, do let us know if Karts are allowed ASAP. K thnks

What is the lot like? I didn't know if it was Vette friendly or not. (John are you running your car there)

after meeting at the park today, we'll probably be moving the barriers the day before the event. Louie sets the barriers 15 feet from the grass to fit spectators up there, but doing that will really reduce the amount of asphalt we can use.

John, Chris, Scott, all others: Do we HAVE to run the course in complete reverse sunday? or could we use the same start/finish locations and just cross over and run the rest of the course reversed? Reason being is I want to use the same start location as last year (to get some speed going and use as much asphalt as possible), but we can't run down through there on the finish (not safe - drop off and telephone pole to the right).

I need at least 4 people to help me move barriers & bleachers on friday the 16th:

1. James Cathers
2. Marcus Luttrell
3.
4.

We'll need to have them moved by 4 pm (when the fire department is going to fill them).

[John Brown]

Yep, I'm running there.. but, I drive a Miata..
And no ...it's not vette friendly ...

[John Brown]

Run it any way you want to!!

I heard that's not a fun place for our cars. I was going to get some PA SS drivers to come down, but not sure now.

Here are a couple of vids from a previous event. You can judge for yourself:

I'm gonna try to keep the schedule pretty strict, I'd really like to give everyone 7 or 8 runs since its gonna be a short run. Also going to try to put more sweepers on the big chunk of pavement.

Dave Yoder will have a better idea of whether or not we can run karts - I really dont see why we couldnt.. no light poles.

[John Brown]

Yea! More sweepers!! I hear bfg tires love those things...
Lol.

Is the lot "Manly Mata" friendly?
