    To be clear, if a session is released under the green - as opposed to being FCY for the "first lap" - I'ma gonna be passin' some folks up in heah.

    In SEDIV they are generally shown a white flag on the out lap....react accordingly, but if you are the first 5 or so cars and take it easy for half a lap, you get the couple of clean laps needed.

    Yes, but I believe Chuck and I got called to the stewards office once when we didn't notice the double yellows displayed on our out lap. ooops.

    So actually take a look.

    You mean you think you are going to pass some folks. I'll dig up my video. You tell me if you'd have not backed down. I have no idea why I didn't throw paper.

    Why cant Jeff wait for the race season, Hes not gonna finish his car. Hes a slacker just like the IT7 group he is trying desperatly to make fun of.

    And let me re state the obvious, Its Hot outside, and I own one of the Hottest Cars known to man wearing the Hottest Outfit I can find. Im not getting to grid any earlier than I need too.
    All posts are made by a fat old guy with a crappy old car that isnt supported by a factory anymore and therefore should not be taken seriously, EVER

    We buy our tires at WalMart 205/50-15 NT-01 $148.00 last all season and go faster as they wear out........

    Post it up. I'd love to see the guys who are going to have to explain why they drove into the side of a competitor's car on the straight.

    Didn't get through all three pages but though I would throw in my .02... Personally at first thought I like the idea of grossing based on points for the first session. Grid order is given out at registration as an "entry list." Anyone who misses early registration is at the back. Ties go by entry order. All of the rest of the sessions are gridded based on results from other sessions as most are now in the northeast with the multi race weekends.

    On second thought though, I like going early to see my friends working grid and my fellow competitors. I also enjoy grid ding up with my brother and other close friends so we can spend at least a couple turns together... We do generally try to get up towards the front.
