    All this talk about crazy fast 1.8 ITA Miata's and worthless ITS BMW's got me wondering. Whos' showing up for this next test? Remember, May 1st the SIR chokes the living daylights out of the 325's. The long runs of WOT should handicap the ITA Miata much like the last test provided it an advantage.

    So who's gonna be there???

    I will in the #00 ITS Rx-7 with Meno. I know Mike and Kip will be there in the Miata(s), A and S??? Wansley/Cohen. Caban/Cohen??, Seck??, Flynn??, Darling??, Ells??, Garcia?? Bussler/May??

    How about you Steve E.?? Been a while since I've seen you. Bring that black beast down to our 2.5 mile dyno. Kent, bring that Jeff guy with you.

    Its showtime.

    And the Mazda goes hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

    I'll be out there crewing, for the Mercedes under the control of Mike Flynn.
    Can't wait to "size up" the ITA crowd as my car will be ready in about a month or so (god willing). You can get an advance viewing of my hand so it will look familiar as I wave you by all next year.

    talk about point bys...I'll be there with my slow ass ITC rabbit.
    if i was

    if i was 4 sec. a lap slower at Roebling to the front running itc car, i should be at least 10 sec a lap slower at Daytona.Straight away speed kills me and my dieing rabbit!!

    But i will be having a blast anyway.

    Tim...few things in life are slower than my Honda. I was once accused of painting my car green...my response was "No, that's moss". I'll be there with bells on. This is one race that I have every reason in the world to miss, but just can't seem to. It's Daytona, it's Spring, it's too much fun. Gotta do it! Bet you a beer we have a good time. Besides, I promised you I'd be there.

    For your viewing pleasure, the Junktech Racing #58 Honda CRX will be in attendance piloted by David and myself.

    Looking forward to it with great anticipation. Haven't raced since Labor Day, need to shake the cobwebs off. Last enduro at Daytona in a CRX netted a podium finish. Hope to have a similar result this year. Big ??? is the extra hundred pounds layed on the Honda recently. Ironically I'm not getting any thinner so we may only have to add 50# !!!

    If the current weather pattern continues, rain will definitely NOT be a concern.

    If I tell these guys that you gave me a ride in your ITS RX many years ago and convinced me to build one they will lynch you!! Really do miss racing with you but I have VIR the next week and the business keeps me plenty busy. I will make a Florida race later in the year just to see my old buds. Luck to all.

    Yep, I'm there. But I'm leaving the 66 home for the weekend (the nitrous system still has some issues). Tentatively set to start the 57 car and I might finish out the day in the #20 TRG special.

    Marc, make sure the tow hook on the back of the 00 is easily accessible, I might throw a rope out to try to keep with you.

    It'll be interesting to see what the SIR did to the BMW's. I hope it's a good race all the way around.

    see ya there

    Both GBRacing cars will be there; SM 23 and ITA 24. Let's just hope the new ITA Civic has less issues this time.

    I also know that Nick "the flying Hawaiian" will be there in the with the black ITA integra.

    Can't wait to see everyone!

    Beer is a difficult thing with me and my crew. I drink Coors...heavy, crew drinks Bud, heavy and Sierra Nevada (or anything dark and expensive). Fortunately, the expensive beer drinker only drinks a maximum of two per day per event. That's why he's the designated driver.

    If it rains, I'll be up in your motor home so fast that you'll think I came with the buyer's package!

    Looking forward to it.

    B ride is in a 87 Honda Accord, Dave Loper recently picked it up from the Atlanta region. It won the ARRC race in ITB then put up for sell. I think it has a bigger motor (2.0) in it then my car (1.8).

    Should be a fun weekend.
