    Not necessarily - you can run IT/SM both Saturday and Sunday, and run a 90 minute Enduro!

    According to google about 8 1/2 hrs. Ron, you show up and I will supply you with the coldest beer you have ever had (note to self to be sure and bring the liquid nitrogen)

    I hadn't noticed that grouping. Of course, I am sure that if enough SM guys register the stewards might be willing to give them their own session. Otherwise we might gets some good practice in traffic management. Of course if we get enough IT guys to register, then WE might have our own group.

    ITC is up to four entries. You will make it 5. I know of at least another that should be entering--6--.

    Any more ITC's out there? It will be quite the race. Maybe we can out enter the SMs.

    Not sure how it will translate to nashville(pretty sure it will be bad), my car is significantly down power at 70whp... so if the cars showing up are front runners I'll be running by myself, don't expect any battles from me. I'm just excited that 6 itc cars will show up, nelson had 10 earlier this year and I suspect It Fest will have as many or more.

    Brian, the several ITC cars that I have been assured will be there include some that will run with you at 70whp. Nashville Superspeedway times show that it tends to favor handling (and driving) over horsepower too. The ITA lap record is only about 3 seconds faster than the ITC lap record. A lot of time is spent turning. And turns are why we road race aren't they?

    I like hearing that, It is way more fun to have other cars around to race with.

    I am glad to have competition and maybe it can be a 1,2,3 for Datsuns that day if Randy shows up.

    Come on over Steve, you know it will be fun even with us slow guys!

    See Paul. Sometimes it takes a little smack talk to flush out the Eckeriches and Youngs of the IT community. The more the merrier.

    It's good to see that Paul will have someone to chase/run from in ITS.
    ECR enties are needed. Two 20 minute qualifying sessions for the 1 1/2 hour enduro. So both drivers, if there are two, get a full session before the race with no track time wasted with drivers switching during Qualifying. We set this one up like I preferred when I ran ECRs. A Qualifying for one driver, then about two hours later, qualifying for the second driver, then the race later in the day.
    Easy ECR points? Maybe.
