Signed up!

Wondering if we could re-open the "reserved car numbers" registration for a few days so those of us who forgot to register their numbers can do so.

I happen to have magnetic odd numbers, but will be driving in the early sessions...so yeah....

I guess we could... not sure if we have the option to re-open reg or not. I'm sure you wouldn't want to pay $20 to have your number for just 3 events, though. But, if I can get it open, I can adjust that.

Will look into it tonight.

Yeah, I thought about that too, maybe open it "early" for next season to include the remainder of this season too. Charge an extra 5 bucks maybe?

The early/late sessions are awesome btw!!

Just looking at the entry list for the Early event, noticed 2 miatas were registered for S5, shouldn't a stock miata be in S4 ?

Yeah, I review for stuff like that periodically. In this case... I've got 2 days of THIS MONTH's events to worry about at present. Will get to it.

Of course, feel free to point out stuff like that. Especially the more obscure stuff that I might miss.

I checked, can't re-open an event once registration is closed. I guess I could open next season early with a higher fee. I'll look into that next week if I don't forget.

Yup, knew it wasn't a big deal at all, just bored and thought I would point it out. Though I gotta watch out for my ol' boys in S5. 8-)

If anyone in ST Pete area is up for it and has a real trunk in their race car?

This week of 15th Walgreens has 2 cases/$7 of Desani water (tax free). Might have to get one of their "cards" for free? You could volunteer to pick up 6 of them and store them for 3 wks. That would be nice.

In case anyone else is wondering, or didn't hear:

This event is not changing.

June is changing from Jun 8 to Jun 15 and moving to a new site. But, let's not discuss that in the May event thread.

:cool:

Registered for the EARLY session then realized about the EVEN number requirements after the fact. Went back in and changed it but still showing my ODD assigned number that I usually run.

Also, Loren, I need to remember to grab my trophy sticker from the March event.

Early session registration is almost full at 49 drivers. Late session stands at 19 so far. (not to worry, people tend to magically appear during the week before the event)
