    Did you get a garage? I'll be in the blue. Say hi.... Be safe.
    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.

    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!

    :sigh:

    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.

    Christian, No question Daytona!

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

    Richy, any room to paddock with you, Scott, and Nick? Let me know and I can stake out some room for everyone Thurs PM/Friday AM.

    OB, get that car TOGETHER!!
    We'll work something out. Scott is also doing the test day. I'm going to try to take the day off and get there early and hopefully get in.

    Hey 2 are better than one at Daytona

    The CW Pence Rebuilders guys came thru and got motor back last night. The boys came over and started putting all the stuff back on it. Hopefully will have it in and running by tonight or tomorrow.

    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.

    Thanks for the heads up.. We just got the car to run the day before yesterday, seems strong, been working on breakign it in. During pratice/qual I will be taking it easy. Maybe I can get a tour from one of you guys... I know Dave R. is oging to give all she's got sunday.

    We noticed that the one of the V710's that I ran at driver school is staring to get come apart.. almsot liek cracks forming in the rubber. So we will be strapping on some old Toyo's that are in better condition.

    Dave should be heading down there in a few with our flaming trailer..
