2011 I.T. Fest race groups and format

[shwah]

I like it the way it has been.

Like anyone else, I would love a dedicated run group, but only if there are 20+ B cars, versus 12.

I don't want shorter races. We were racing for the top 3 for damn near every lap at this event in 08.

Will there be a reduced fee like last year for entry into more than one class (ie. ITA and SM)? Also, possible to have at least one if not two groups between ITA and SM to allow some prep etc.?

Charlie,

There will be a reduced fee again this year ( not sure how much yet?) And yes there will be a couple of race groups between for prep.

Chris,

Thank you for the input!

Will you be gracing us with your presence this year?

[shwah]

I want to be there. Just too much going on in my life right now to honestly plan it out, but I hope to make it.

Well I certainly hope you do.

...with the growing interest in STU and STL, maybe we could get a good crowd? I just don't want to burn a weekend and race nobody.

Since we have a few months, our team is prepared to bring two STU cars if others will meet us there.

John, I'm putting this event on my list, especially if they add STL. I'll still put it on the list if I have to run STU, but I suspect I'd need to add a wing pod and a solid rocket booster to keep up with you guys...

Hey John! Where ya been?? Assuming World Challenge has been keeping ya busy. That would be nice if you (and Kevin) came on up and ran. Take it easy

[TAC]

Good to see some lobbying going on. I'm working on the schedule and classes over the next weekend so I should have something to go with by Monday.

[TAC]

O.K. If I go with this line up any suggestions on where to put STU and STL??


Group 1 ITS, ITC
Group 2 CFC, FC, FE, FM, etc....
Group 3 ITR, ITE
Group 4 SM
Group 5 SRF, EP, FP, HP
Group 6 F500, FV, FST, CFF, FF
Group 7 ITA, IT7,ITB

[Greg Amy]

With ITR and ITE. But, that keeps ITR cars from double-dipping into STU (assuming they'd have interest in that)...but it does encourage other IT classes to double-dip (assuming they'd have interest in that). - GA
