BUMP!
Only four weeks until the first event!!!
Registered. Looking forward to thrashing your tires (hopefully) by then!
Maybe I should bring my new E36 instead :)
You bought an e36? What, the e30 is too fast?Quote:

I'll post a list up a few times before the event.Quote:

What happened to S1 being a "very fun class"? I'm the only one registered! :(
Aside from a 1993 Miata that didn't seem to read the new class structures.
*edit* any chance you could switch me from AM to PM? Mike, 2002 M3.
Just resubmit the registration, and I'll remove the first. No worries!Quote:

Registration list updated! Please see attached.
I've fixed alot of classing mistakes, so please let me know if you see others.
Re-submitted my registration for the afternoon, thanks.
And, good to finally see some more S1 participants! Now I don't have to go buy shocks, swaybars, and wheels to get into T1/M1. :)
Updated list attached!
2 more mis-registrants spotted in S1 there. (Lines 14 and 20)
I've emailed them to correct.Quote:

BTW: is the facility finished now? Just wondering if they polished it off yet...
It's getting there ...Quote:

It's a skidpad ... not a parking lot. That's the main reason.Quote:

Other considerations are cost, water runoff, and being a multi-purpose facility.
I think all of these islands give the drifters defined roads for their competitions.Quote:

Those dirt islands don't scare me, what scares me are curbs (aka Bowie). Talk about dialing it back.Quote:

Is this going to be a polished slick surface like the MSPTF skid pad? Like auto-x in the rain?
My old crappy compooter don't read xls files so I hope i'm in. I'm showing up anyway.
It's actually pretty grippy now. It will polish in time, however, there's absolutely no plans to seal it.Quote:

And yes, to this point every who registered is in.Quote:

VIR's skid pad is a big lot, not a ring like SPR's
Where will we paddock at SPWas?
Hmm ...Quote:

Current entry list attached.
That's great that there is a paddock, IDK.Quote:
