Most of the SSC Coopers were factory supplied pre-spec cars. They were all recalled and "recycled". With the new MINI out now, prices for the "older" models may actually get reasonable.

A rainy forcast and 34 Miatas should make for an interesting race on Sunday.
WOW! 17 Spec Miatas and 10 SSM Miatas.
I'm detecting a trend.
The supps say 45 cars or no go. Race officials have unofficially said they may hold the race with less. Let's hope.

Has anyone heard any info about the planning board meeting last week concerning Thunderbolt Raceway? There's nothing on the website.
26 registered so far. Only 19 to go.
John is the man for the job.
Just keep him away from the Jell-O shots.

Switching from Hoosiers to Kumho V710 this weekend (sponsor mandate) on a well sorted ITA Civic Si - 205/55-14. Any thoughts on hot pressures and/or starting pressures?
Can't make M7, but the double is on my calender if I can put together a ride. Better start doing your liver excercises.

Congrats to all of the drivers, crews, and especially to all the workers. Even though the Otto's Motorsport team was sidelined this season, we had a great time watching one of the best SCCA events on...
I've heard some of the ITA guys won't let you paddock anywhere near them unless you bring beer.

Don't forget the beer. Not for the event, but for the weeks beforehand. You will need to get your friends good and liqoured up as you talk them into joining you on your extended weekend adventures....
Plan on being there by thurs am early (at the latest) if you want to have any choice of getting a decent paddock spot. This event usually draws 300+ cars.

What's the deal with Finger Lakes Region requiring two crew members to be "volunteered" to work at a two hour race?
Isn't it enough that we are paying $140.00 for a double regional that we aren't...
John, you have to bring the Nissan to VIR. We need another chance to "slay the dragon" er... the pumkin. Are you going to Nelson this weekend for the 2 hour?

What time is everyone showing up for the 12 Hours at the Point? I know "Seat Time" is scheduled to be there on Friday the 4th. Will the let us in to set up while they are there?
...
There is no information about the 2004 Enduro Series on the NESCCA site. Anyone know what's up?
