I love that we're selling out events. I hate that it means some people aren't getting in. 
I'll try to let you know if there's a cancelation. Sometimes openings come and go before I even see them.

BIG favor to ask. Can you schedule my Dad and me for an early crew work assignment (e.g. tech) and also in the first run group? We need to leave by 12 if at all possible. Otherwise, I'll have to cancel our registrations. Thanks bunches!

It just occurred to me that I won't have my car for this event. Anybody got something that they would like for me to drive?

There is.
And I thought I'd already posted it.
Okay, I guess I did upload it. I may have even done that before I went on vacation! I just didn't post it here.
Here's the course!
Hi-Res PDF Course Map

The finish section is highly subject to change. Maybe a little tighter slalom. Maybe a little more space from that to the finish. Maybe more straight area after the finish. Whatever feels right.

Actually you totally lucked out. I have never EVER cancelled an event. I had 2 spots with I and my daughter and MA flight ruined the event for us. So Uncle Loren saved your butt once again. You should let him co-drive your car!! Looks like an awesome course too.markzeronine wrote:Haha I believe there's still one more spot as well.

Thanks,Bruce

I haven't reviewed the entries for this event yet. If there are obvious errors, I'll usually catch them.
