Hey Jason, what car will you be driving and what is your track experience level?

OK, sounds good thanks. I have to try to group the cars that will be similar speed on the track... to try to minimize the passing.

OK, all spots have now been paid for, if for some reason you have paid and can't go you will need to talk to someone on the standby list or a friend to take your place.

If you have not sent me your car info and your track experience (novice < 2 events, intermediate < 5 events, pro > 5 events), please do so that I can better group the cars. Thanks!

Can I have my spots in 2 different groups? It is kind of hard for me to drive the car twice during one run group :wink:

Jason buddy it's you and me all day long! Supper tab goes to the one passed the most by the other! (joke)
I don't think I can overcome your power and courage :-)
after the 1st run it's pretty awesome fun all day long, we learn what order to start everyone off after the 1st go at it then your not in each others way till we come back around and if 15 min. runs that's not as likely to be a problem as with 20. usually 1st lap is 2/3 warm up speed anyway.

There are 3 dedicated places on the course for passing and it requires a "point by" from the driver being passed. This will all be explained in the drivers meeting.
