It's looking like we are going to have a full field at Daytona. IT run group has become even a bigger group than SMs:happy204:

I have a lot of work to make Daytona happen but looking forward to it and hopefully putting a new motor by C.W. Pence Rebuilders to the test.

Hope to see e everyone there!
 
Richy,
Hope you make it to the track. I plan to be there too barring any unforseen drama.
Did you get a garage? I'll be in the blue. Say hi.... Be safe.
 
I'm signed up.. still waiting from the two motors from CW Pence. Hopefully, I can get Dave R's block back this friday and mine next week.

No I didn't. Scott Seck, Nick Tenn and myself will be creating our on little garage. Not sure where the TrackSpeed boys will be at.

Make sure you guys communicate with them and stop by. They have always done good work by me and they treat me as part of their "familia". You just need to make sure they put your stuff with their regular work.
 
good luck too all. just starting my freshman year of college so the funds are a little dry. have some fun for me!:eclipsee_steering:

We registerd late as well. I was hoping you guys got a garage. Our last chance is for Dave to have got one, but I doubt it.

I am relying on Dave to stay on them. What is "regular work"?

So far there are 67 cars registered for the "IT group" and there is still two weeks to go!

Sounds like another great race coming up! I've got the time/money to do either a test & tune at Roebling on the 1st/2nd or Daytona the weekend after. I'd really like to run the Daytona weekend but it would be a potential shakedown/initial run-in/1st race fiasco if something goes awry. Any suggestions or arm twisting?

Christian, who'd also need to get his license re-instated (fingers crossed)
 
Daytona!

I will be breaking a motor in there, as well as trying to develop the suspension, riding on half a decade old Toyo take offs, ohh yeah, did I mention that I am on my novice permit? haha

I am sure your weekend should be a bit easier than mine. But bang for the buck RR would probably make more sense.
 
Hey Richie hope you make it hopefully I can keep up with you with the new engine and get a tow, my shoe box needs all the help it can get. :D

Christian, No question Daytona!

I'm in the blue garage if anybody needs anything.

Well see you there Tim! And come talk to us.... I've got a couple of ideas concerning your car.
 
Mr. Shipp,

Do the test day at Daytona and then the races. The ITA field is huge. Not sure, but I think you can sleep in your own bed that weekend too.:023:

Mr Ulbrik,

Excellent to see you using your new permit. You will do great. Its a way easier track to race on than the short course. Remember, my car is silver.:D

Mr. Guenther,

Thanks again for the great racing in June. Very well done sir. A repeat plan would be most excellent.

Who is this Craig Conway d00d in an ITB Alfa???

This is gonna be big.:happy204:
 
Well... I sent in my request for license renewal and waiver. If I can get it back in time, I'm planning to be there too. :D

PS
You can thank Marc for taking the time to goad me via PM too!

Call Topeka they will e-mail you a copy of your license, with race registrations down they should be happy to reinstate you.
 
Good idea. Toni emailed Topeka my docs for the license. I guess I can call them Monday and see about getting an emailed copy. :)

Keep in mind that the RPMs at Daytona might be a bit rough for a motor break in. And the high speeds there are killer on old tires. You really have to pull off at the first sign ov vibration because you could have a tire separation. I had two come apart on the practice day at Daytona in May and I wasn't pushing it hard at all. I was just trying to get a little more time out of some used up tires.

It sucks to have to pull off in a race. But it sucks a lot harder to tow home a twisted up race car. I've done that a few times.

Just be smart and be safe. You are amoungst your friends.

Marc, I appreciate you letting me follow you so closely and giving me the benifit of your vast experience. It has taken me ten years to be able to run with you. Guess that makes me a slow learner. I don't know if I have the kahonas to hang with you through the chicane though. You really fly through there. Take me to school.

Yes, a repeat plan would be most excellent. I look forward to seeing you at the track.:eclipsee_steering:
 
ARRRRGH!!!!
I guess I will not be racing with you guys unless a miracle happens for me...
Motor is out of the old car in pieces tranny in pieces, new car put on pause.....
Maybe a spectator that weekend if anyone needs help or anything I am 20 mins from the track....
Hopefully I be running.
