Re: Apr 24 - Brooksville
I'd offer to tow the trailer... But I can't justify Driving the truck all the way to Brooksville, without being able to look forward to a home cooked meal.
I'm out, Not signed up, Not interested in going or helping. Maybe SPC.. since James and his Dad will be there testing out the new MRoadster. and I have to use up my event credit sometime.

Re: Apr 24 - Brooksville
I'm towing the trailer; picking it up after work tonight.Jamie wrote:Bill -- please confirm you're towing the trailer.
I left the trailer doors open inside the barn after the last event, so the trailer itself should be dry. The bins and their contents may be a different story.Expect the trailer may be a bit damp inside, although we drained all the water out we could. If the weather cooperates, we'll want to open up all the bins and air them out, too...whoever signed up for trailer unloading has a job.

Re: Apr 24 - Brooksville
So, after snapping a bolt on the intake cam holder plate tightening down the valve cover I was just about out for sure with my car.. but then I remembered I had spares, so loosened the cam, replaced the bolt, retorqued and all may be well now.. still not 100% on driving my car..
However, I just realized that I have removed the rear seat (simply because the subwoofer and such is bolted to the seat) so I might have to go to E3? Personally I don't care, it's either me versas Steve, or me versas Loren, Rydell and Dave (with the Si). If anyone is stock cares I'll run E3, if Rydell gets scared I'll run stock.

Re: Apr 24 - Brooksville
Whoo hooo, I'm stoked getting to try out the 710's tomorrow. Going to be a long drive on them, but a can a fix-a-flat, an air compressor, and roadside assistance paid for with my insurance...I'm good to go. Just curious if I'll be rubbing some inner-fenders being slightly lowered.

Just so no one gets excited, there's no waiting list. There's never a waiting list for Brooksville. The access roster went in a week ago -- can't change it now.
For SPC, there's a waiting list on-site -- if the event fills in advance, we don't start one early.
Just wanted to be clear.

I'll run in E3 though. Jamie, if you see this, move me to E3. Since I'll be out on the course working it'll make a difference where you put me this time
