    Planning on bringing my ITB Prelude to the event along with some extra fuel injector 0-rings. Hopefully this year I'll be able to figure out turn one.

    My dad is planning on it with his ITS car, and for my brother and I it will be mostly up to the finances. For me it will also depend on class groupings and/or split starts.

    Thanks guys Lets keep this poll at the top of the topic page so it won't get lost in the shuffle. Right now from the other info I've gathered the preference voiced is to keep things at :


    5 race groups. Does it matter if the race group is Formula cars?

    Scuttle the thoughts on AS? Or leave it as a backup in case TCC doesn't pan out?

    Hardship session Sunday morning?

    As far as the Race weekend.



    Over 2 hours of time is good.
    ---------------------------Saturday 30 minutes qualifying ?
    -------------------------- Afternoon races of 22 laps = 52. 8 miles? ( 25 laps = 60 miles)
    -------------------------- Sunday morning sprint race ( keep at 17 laps) or shorten it to 15?

    Format is staying the same no matter what.

    Let me know.

    I would imagine all of the Margarita Motorsports ITS cars will be there. 6 RX-7's (Miller, Mast, Wise, Harding, Milarcik, Martz), 4 Datsuns (Carson, Woeppler, Walton, Walton). Mike OLivier will be there in his ITA Civic EX. Maybe even a T2 350 Z in ITE of course.

    Todd-

    Is that in reference to split starts?

    No, in reference to the Three race format w/ individual medals and Overall weekend trophies.

    Count me in - ITB!

    But I agree with Raymond B. on a SHORT hardship session on Sunday morning just to make sure that if there were issues on Saturday - they won't be there in a racing context on Sunday. I had a wheel bearing failure on Saturday afternoon, and the only way that I could "check" it was to drive around in the paddock after replacing it and repairing other associated stuff..............not a real comforting feeling going out there Sunday morning!

    Looking forward to another great event!

    My C Rabbit will be there this year, being tweaked now. IT Spectacular, July ORP RR, and one, maybe two, track days at Putnam Park are the only events I plan on running at this point. FWIW, Todd, give the IT community the opportunity to support the '08 event before adding other groups. As expressed before, the opportunity to race other IT racers from around the country makes this event too good to pass up.

    …I feel ill at how far we have drifted from engineering and automotive integrity. It's not just nostalgia. It's more like sorrow. For a shining moment in human history all our science and engineering blossomed to create the great inventions and designs. Now we engage in techno-masturbation like Twitter and TPMS…

    I don't think its going to be a problem.

    I'll be there in ITA (mid-packing my way to a great weekend!). Hopefully we have the other ITA Civic done by then and that will mean both Downing brothers will be throwing down for top (mid-pack) honors! (Or my brother will kick my @$$ and I'll be forced to drink my sorrows away on Sat. night - oh wait... I do that anyway!!!)

    Hopefully we can have an after party-party Sat. night and NOT get shut down. (*screaming voice* "I'll call the Sheriff and have you removed from the facility - I will...")

    Kirk and Pablo will be there, taking the ITB race to Scott Giles' new Honda. Hope we're up for it.

    If the Golf is 2 seconds off the pace with me driving, is that proof that it's too light?

    Me too Vaughan. Based on last year, it should be a close and very fun race.

    Yeah Jason, I'll bring a spare set of rear rotors too.
