    Sure. Top of the hill on your right before going down the road to A and B (Sunoco). Just watch out for the karts!

    Seriously? I'd love to get in to hunt down an electrical gremlin earlier than 6PM. I figured they'd say no at the gate because reg doesn't open until 6. Do I need a secret password?

    Default Rain

    Not to "rain" on your thread here, sorry for the interruption.

    Assuming the worst, I have a set of brand new unmounted Kumho rain tires, 205-50-15 if anyone needs them. I am about an hour from the track, and they can be delivered early Friday or Saturday morning. Call me at 860 567-4567 if interested.

    Actually, I hope it is dry for the day and you guys have a great race.

    The Suzuki is a scratch for the weekend. No rain tires, no wheels to mount 'em on even if I did. Not going to bother with the time and money for nuthin'.

    I'll be instructing on Friday, see y'all there! - GA

    That moves my finishing position up one. I'm guessing that at least groups 1 - 3 will be going out on dry tires but absolutely understand where you're coming from. Nothing would be worse than to qual. in dry, then have it rain for the race not haing rain tires. See you on Fri.

    There's no registration or tech on Thursday anyway, so all you need to do is sign a waiver to enter the track. Keep in mind that I don't believe there is any overnight camping permitted tonight either, though.

    According to the school supps, registration opens at 6PM. I'm instructing. (Pity the fools!)

    Good to know I won't have to pay them then try to get a refund.
