I know, it's way early, but this section needed a second thread!

Here's what we know:
Nothing, LOL!

But here's a GUESS.

Andy has an idea that we'll get 110 minutes of race time...
and lets guess that entires will be $290 -330.
...and there will be a test day or some extra track time available for learning the course the day before.
...and that the Region will make a serious effort at scrutineering and ensuring legality.

Also, lets just say that there won't be any: TV, Prize money and few if any contingencies, at least this year.

So, who's going??

I'll say "Yes" dependant on the scheduling of my traditional Charity Swim across Long Island Sound (Between Port Jefferson, LI and Bridgeport, CT...donations welcome, it benefits the St Vincent Cancer Program.. ;) )

I'd love to make it, but I've got too remodel my other house and move in next year, so the time isn't there. The race schedule will be drastically reduced until the new shop gets built. Hope it's a success, though.

Yes and I didn't do to bad on those turns during the unmentionable organizations runoffs. :D It alaso has a nice long straight in the back. I have 4 days of track time under my belt there at one event. But of course there is always room for improvment. Mid 45's first time at the track in the handling pig.

Joe, I didn&#39;t even realize you were at Mid Ohio last summer. I wish I would&#39;ve known.

Of course I will be there in ITA, and we&#39;ll most likely have Brian Ehmer in the ITS Prelude too. It&#39;s always a good possibility that one, if not both, of our ITC cars will be there too.

Yes I was there. I had a blast. Always wanted to run the track after seeing the runoffs on tv. Unfortunately no one in SE-R cup decided to show so I ran the class anyway. I was generously rewarded for showing up anyway. I plan on doing the IT festival and if there is nothing going on in the NE leaving the rig by a buddies house for the few weeks until the NASA runoffs.

12-22-2006, 12:53 PM
i&#39;d like to go but am also trying to qualify for the runoffs with my mostly ITB somewhat limited prep GP car. not that big of deal to convert the car between the two classes but there is a national that may be needed to qualify at grattan that weekend per the tentative schedule.

grattan is 70 miles round trip vs. 700 round trip to mid-ohio.

also trying to save $$ for the ARRC.

all of this depends on family health issues as well.

i put myself at 50/50 at best so all of my comments regarding preferences of pro/club course can be taken with a grain of salt. none of that would be a show stopper but runoffs has priority.

I am in the maybe column. Just too many variables for me in 2007 to know for sure. If all goes well with the new motor and other projects on the car, and if I can get it all sorted in time (which means if I can do some early season races with a 2nd baby due in March), and if the budget allows both this and ARRC. I plan to go.

It sounds like a terrific time for several reasons: great track; stiff competition; an opportunity to meet you guys face to face and share some :birra:

I hope I am in the definite column by August :eclipsee_steering:

Oh Yeah,

Gap in the MC schedule, Only 450 miles away. Never drove there, but it&#39;s on my list. Plus a track day before hand means I can get some laps in before I qualify (Unlike the VIR 13 hours where my first lap was qualifying...AT NIGHT)

Count me in unless something major comes up.

Well, since I can&#39;t let Jeff be the only Saturn there...

It will depend on my cash situation at that time. My vacation is taking a large chunk of funds this year, but hopefully I&#39;ll still be nice and relaxed come this event!

And, as for the comment about Milwaukee beer, I&#39;m deeply offended. There&#39;s nothing wrong with Milwaukee&#39;s Best! It&#39;s called the "Best" for a reason! (OK, the only thing it is "Best" at is provided cheap bottles for making homebrew. It is cheaper to buy the beast with the deposit, pour it out, clean and sterilize the bottles and re-use then it is to buy new bottles!)

I started an excel sheet to do this, but when I tried to add it to this thread with the excel sheet as an attachment, I got "rejected."

You would be able to beat me. I mean, all you&#39;d have to do is run better than consistent 1:50&#39;s? You can do that......can&#39;t you? :P

Right now neither ITC car is going. With both the Integra in ITA and the Prelude in ITS, my Dad doesn&#39;t feel like driving - just wants "crew chief" duties. Since ITC is with ITA, me doubling up was never an option either. I hope Fruth comes out of the wood works for ITC and I really wish someone would buy/race Devin Box&#39;s Civic.

I was planning on it - but I have a cracked wrist that I&#39;m not sure is going to be ready in time! I may go ahead and register tonight, but I won&#39;t know if I can go for another week...

I&#39;m sorry to hear about your wrist. I hope that you can still make it.

I went ahead and registered. Anybody know how to interpret the following quote from the doc?

"Be very careful with it for the next 2-3 weeks and it should be fine. If you make it any worse, we&#39;ll have to do surgery on it and put it in a cast."

I can&#39;t find the phrase "no racing" in there anywhere, can you? :rolleyes:

Sounds like "apply racer&#39;s tape and drink liquid pain killers after racing activities" to me. :birra:

But -- I am not a doctor, and I did NOT stay in a Holiday Inn last night.

i think a sticker on the back of your car would be appropriate:

"No Bump Drafting Allowed"

looking forward to seeing you again!

Should we put the sticker on the back of the car or on the inside of the windshield :D ?

Looking forward to running up north again, it&#39;s been a couple years........

Shame on you, Eddie. You can find more excuses not to go racing...like a little cracked wrist. I&#39;ve got a cow&#39;s heart valve, a pacemaker, and had three heart attacks while on the operating table last year, and I&#39;m still racing. Go up there and have more fun than you can believe, but take it easy on the wrist.

That&#39;s the spirit, guys!

Ya know, my GTI is now 23 years old, and it&#39;s getting hard to find parts for it.

Imagine how hard it must be to find parts for Chris! :lol:

Wait a minute, how old am I?

I&#39;d vote for no split starts. Just my .02¢ :D

Hi gang,

Split starts will only happen if it is taken up with the Chief Steward. The hope is that things will sort themselves out due to the speed differentials between classes anyway.

Hey guys...

Been out of town and away from the computer... I am flattered to be even mentioned as a possible winner in ITS... To be considered with the current ITS Champ and friend is cool... especially &#39;cause I only raced the car 4 weekends...

Cant tell ya how much I am looking forward to this weekend!!!!

Ray Blethen... hope to catch up and say hey sometime... will look for you all in the paddock.

Really happy to see such a turn out from across the country... cant wait to share my favorite track with you all!!

Make sure you all stop by the Smith camp and say hello and get a Mama Smith "Race Cookie"!

Whoo hooo :eclipsee_steering:

Kevin,

3 entries in ITC. Vesa , Shawn Hobbs, and Jim Sexton.


Todd


The last time I checked the registered ITC guys, there were 9 entries. Unfortunately, there is one scratch from the list as I broke a connecting rod in my 1.6 Bunny at a Putnam Park track day a week ago. Everyone - have a great weekend, race hard and fair, and I pray all four corners are on your rockets when you trailer them Sunday afternoon/evening. :023: I HATE having to miss this one. :(

Jim Sexton

I was wondering what happened? Sorry you won&#39;t be running it looks like a very strong ITC field.
