    Hell Yeah! We could have our secret "IT" race at the Runoffs distinguished as STU

    Put all the other classes to shame

    Can you imagine if 50 IT cars showed up and made the participation numbers of the other classes look silly?

    And, get Bob Zecca involved to make it the final, unofficial Pro-IT series championship finale, complete with prizes for all individual unoffical STU sub-classes (e.g., STUr, STUs, STUa, STUb, STUc...)

    Damn, we're good.

    Bet it gets shut down last minute, though. I can only IMAGINE the reaction of the BoD member that's covertly reading this thread right now...

    Well,

    I plan on getting started in January @ Sebring. It's a double this year so I can get half of the needed finishes to get qualified in STU with the old Neon. I like the invansion on the RunOffs idea. We might be able to out participate SM and SRF! Wouldn't that be something!

    Isn't there a double National at Moroso a/k/a PBIR the week before Sebring's double National. You could get all four races in a week.

    I understood it to be a double at Homestead new years weekend which makes it a hard sell for me.

    There is suppose to be a double at VIR in April also?

    Hell we don't start racing up here in the north until late april and even that tends to be too cold.
