Registered and paid.

This is an awesome event. Anyone considering should probably go. It's not much of an autocross. More like a cheap way to get a few passes on the road course with a couple of cones in the way to slow you down.

OK, well you knew SOMEBODY would have to have difficulty with this :) ... I went to the site to sign up, but the SSM class has "Street Tire Street Modified" ... does anyone know what the deal is? Thanks!

SMF maybe???

I'm betting that's their Tire indexed class. Basically like STM, except you run your normal class (excluding Street Touring) on street tires. Since I'm not legal for STU, I signed up for the Tire class and I'll be in TBSP. Odd they don't seem to have a SSM versus TSSM. I'm sure you want to keep using your race crack... :D

Didn't find it posted anywhere, but you think there's a chance that the money might be refundable if you can't make it?

Maybe sell your spot if it fills up.

Last one was really fun and worth it, just want to make sure my car is good to go.

What part of the track is being used? And for how long?

I'm trying to figure out what speeds we might be looking at.
