Well we are about a week away and we have a trailer tow (thanks Ed) and lunch (thanks Rick).

So who want's to grab supplies for this one?

Also, did anyone make a list after the last event of what we have on hand?
Racing... because golf only requires one ball.

As long as you cancel before registration closes, you'll be put on the list for a credit.
And I just realized that registration has closed already. Sorry.

Ah, right you are. I just switched over to the MAE window that I already had open and saw that registration closed on "the 31st", failing to notice that it was May 31st, and the event I was looking at was the June event.

Yeah. You can cancel for this event until the 9th.

7-7:30 is a good time to show up to get "the full experience".

There has been a cancellation. As of right now, there is a slot available. Spread the word to whomever might want to know.

What? Ed's not registered? What the hell, Ed?

Okay, I manual-entered Ed into the open slot. Ed, if perhaps you were planning to tow the trailer and NOT enter the event (huh?), lemme know and I'll cancel you.

I really want to do this however, I can't. I will be outta town next weekend for the Daytona Chumpcar race and it wouldn't go over to well with the wife to be absent 3 weekends in a row.

Yea I know PW'd :whip: , but you gotta pick your battles.

Okay, I'll get in and cancel you when I get home this evening. Does anyone else need this spot? :geek:

I take it you're still hauling the trailer, though?

Imma steal Ron's thunder, I guess. He was mumbling something about having teeth pulled earlier this week, so I guess he's indisposed.

He's decided to run a course from November 2009. We'll make some slight changes to the finish since we don't have to deal with timer cables, otherwise, it should be about the same course. And it's a good one!

Here's the PDF version

And (or should I say "&" ?) here's a preview:

And to go along with the coursemap, here's the SPC forms if y'all would like to download and complete them ahead of time.

If you do, please print them back to back on the same sheet of paper - it's a lot easier to deal with at registration and afterwards. Thanks for your support!
