Besides perennial favorite Chris Albin and the Nova Scotia regulars, who else has a shot at the podium?

Sam Moore - although the car was a DNS at the SIC in the hands of "Son of Sam."

Wasn't sure if Sam was going to show or not, but he's definitely at the top of the list.

I guess it still remains to be seen if a Blethen will show up or not. That Audi was moving up through the field in a damn hurry last year.

Scott, you know, it could just happen. He's got the car, the help, the knowledge, and the skill...for sure.

I am going to bring my Accord, but it is fresh out of a four year stay in a wharehouse. It not prepared well enough to run up front.

I am in the same boat.. my Prism has been stored for 2 years before I bought it and has only run once in the past 2 years... <_<

So why not bring it out for the biggest IT race of the year... :119:

I can only hope to contend.. but stranger things have happened! :o

Any chances of the newly moved down from ITA Civic/CRX Si&#39;s or Prelude Si&#39;s showing up? I&#39;ve seen one example of each up here in CenDiv this year and they&#39;ve appeared to be decently quick for brand new cars.

Peter, you&#39;re kidding about not being able to run up front, right? I definately see you in the top 3 and having a very good shot at first.

R2 Racing, I might make the trip down with my prelude but we&#39;ll see. Just found out from the body shop that the frame is bent pretty nicely. Great :(

Thanks for the vote of confidence Dave, but I drove the car a couple of weeks ago at Daytona and it is pretty rough. I am trying to get things worked out, but there is not a lot of time.

As for Mr. Pobst, I have offered him a ride in my SM, but I do not know if his schedule will work out. I think I have a really good SM, but with all the traffic I just do not do the car justice. Maybe we can split the Enduro.

Deuce has built a new (very nice) ITB Golf, but is having some teething prpblems. He is trying to make it to Sebring this weekend to test and then go to the ARRC. PK

Peter!!!

Great to see you back in the Accord!!! Many people probably don&#39;t realize, the Blethen&#39;s instructor back in the day was Peter Keane with the super fast yellow Accord (yup, we learned all from him :unsure: JK) !!!

Anyway peter, next year you need to make a trip back up north sometime, we would all love to see that car in action once again!!!

Looking at the entry list is there any way of telling who is doing the ECR and who is doing the sprint race?

This is a very nice size field of B cars I hope that alot of yall will stick around for the ECR!

My prediction is I will not win!! I should not say that because I am teamed with 2 very good drivers for the Sun. race so WE could win IF I don&#39;t blow it during my stint? :blink:
One thing if for sure if it rains the VW&#39;s will have a chance aginst the Pinto&#39;s and Volvo&#39;s? Thats all I can hope for?

I was told that this will happen to me if I don&#39;t push the car or miss a shift.... :bash_1_:

Good Luck to all

well I re-scheduled to race at VIR as the Baucom family will be there, so I canceled at the ARRC.
So, everyone racing in ITB can breathe a sigh of relief and realize that first place is back up for grabs.

27 ITB cars entered, but not a lot of talk. There has got to be a dark horse out there or someone feeling lucky. PK

I think the 26 volvo probably has a few more tricks up his sleeve, I think it was his race to loose last year until he was taken out. He has a had a rough year, but this is RA in November!

Any honda accord will have a good shot too!

Ahh (big sigh of relief) - we just completed the car tonight after many, many long hours, wonderful spray paint :( and all. Now I&#39;m getting excited! This should be interesting.

Dave,
I ask only 1 thing of you. Don&#39;t scuff the paint. I didn&#39;t spend my time inhaling all those fumes so you could try painting someone elses car the same colors.

Sorry Jon, no promises. That is after all the beauty of spray paint! Maybe I should bring a few cans down with me? :rolleyes:

I&#39;m sure you&#39;ll get it done Peter. My car had to be at another location Sunday early afternoon otherwise I&#39;d probably be in the same boat as you. Best of luck!

Dave,

You have a better chance than you may think at winning!! Your as fast as I am at LRP which means your car can run with anyone down at RA. My advise is to get behind someone who has done well in the past and then stick to them. Learn the track from them.... remember they are not going to sandbag every session if you continue to follow them ;) That&#39;s what I did my first year and ended up third!!

Go for it!! your representing NER!!! Good luck and report back to us!
