School's Out Regional - LRP

[Andy Bettencourt]

Fantastic idea Greg! Throw a "checker" with double yellow after 15 laps. Cars regroup in same order, continue the race at start/finish. It would also be something a bit different and fun.

+1 for Greg and Dave!!!!

EXCEPT: G3 and G7 would total 41 cars right now.

[Greg Amy]

Hell, I wouldn't even bother with a yellow-flag/regroup. Just make it clear at S/F that the "halfway race" is done, and competitors can choose at that point to continue to the full race or not...

I still think it would be cool to bunch the cars back up.

Hey, if we can get in 30 laps of good racin', I'm fine with "NASCAR'n" the group as many times as you want! Just remember: green-white-checker, boogety-boogety!

Don't forget the lucky dog.

I could be on lead lap!!!???

Actually, Dave's idea has real merit. I highly doubt the stewards would go for it, and I fear some in the group would be mightily confused.

The winner would need to just about park it after the checker for it to work. If we were really good, we could get it two by two'ed by the downhill.

(I've never been much of a fan of the longer race format...either do a sprint, or go longer...really longer. The long sprint rarely proves or changes much.)

A mid race yellow would shake things up. Would be a blast.

Too bad... box seats for BOS v ATL wins over 6 hours of driving to LRP

As a newbie to Lime Rock this weekend is there someplace in particular in the paddock that the IT guys pit?

On second thought, maybe I should ask if there is someplace I should avoid pitting to avoid some of the regulars from this site?

We are all over...FOM HQ is already set up in 'A' paddock. As you enter, keep on going - bend to the right and you will see the rig.

Lol!!!!

[wepsbee]

Why does it always rain at LRP? Haven"t quite figured out the dry line yet. I guess I will have to break out the RA1's again.

[JLawton]

The good thing about the repaving is that there really isn't a rain line at this point. There's still plenty of grip on the regular line.

[gran racing]

Greg, I'd be more than happy to accept donations, put tGA all over my car for the right sponsorship deal...heck, I'll even e-mail you a donation link.

Good to know, Thanks. My sister all ready has had a practice run this year and is also taking the school so I am at a disadvantage before I start!!!!
