School's Out Regional - LRP

[jpvonoy]

Finally, it would probably be far easier to convince all of the officials if there was obvious, overwhelming support from the entrants.

+1 for combining groups and longer races!

[Andy Bettencourt]

I sent my e-mail to the event Chair and Chief Steward.

[Andy Bettencourt]

Well, the total for the 2 run groups is up to 45 cars now. Probably not good to combine at this point.

BUT, my letter did also include a request to do SOMETHING with the 7-car G6. Most obviously combining with the 17 count G8. Give them 2 extra laps so the FV guys don't get less racing and 'pay-off' the FA guys for having to dodge the FV guys...

[lateapex911]

If I were king, I'd discuss combining group 4 and group 6. 12 Spec racers and 6 FFs. (and 1 F500). Compatible lap times (I think) and still a small or medium group of 19.

Right now all I'm hoping for is rain! :026: Got a chance to try the new track when raining today, damn it's fast and fun. Pour, pour, pour!!!!

Your chances are pretty good. It has rained every day for weeks!

[Greg Amy]

Right now all I'm hoping for is for me to get on a track and compete against other cars.

Just sayin'...

[PsychoRallye]

Ah, to be on track..

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.

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.

[Andy Bettencourt]

Hey Dave - if you raced more often, you would know that Lime Rock is FAST and FUN in the dry too!!!!

60% chance of NO RAIN.

[Greg Amy]

Greg, I'd be more than happy to accept donations...

Priorities, babe! Worry less about microphones, cameras, blah, blah, blah and more about gettin' yer butt to feelin' them awesome Honda g-forces!

60% chance of NO RAIN.

Good thing. I'd be a-bailin' out for Saturday if it rains (no tires, and no wheels to put them on even if I did have tires...)

No new tires for you. I can go see Joey Chitwood at the Big E anytime I want...

[Greg Amy]

"Joie", dude. Joie.

[gran racing]

Priorities, babe!

Exactly!! You've finally got it. New baby in the family and $17K per year in daycare costs plus all the other stuff, two pups fighting Cancer last year and paying for Chemo; both lost. Probably the hardest year of my life. Racing? Great escape watching and talking about it but not even close on my priority list. Tis a new year though. I was even able to afford the $7 replacement mic. lol
