yeah... the revolution should really be a little later in the season so this doesn't happen. The nice weather we were having was just a plus, typically this time of year it's still sorta crappy up until mayish in the ohio/indianapolis area.

I have a video of the blue rx7 with the drag slicks. I forgot the name of the guy so sorry for that. I will try to have it up in the next day or so. it sounds really good.

Im up for having RR later in the year as well. It was just to cold and the turn out was really low.

I was also dissapointed in the amount of items that the vendors had. I was hoping to buy my fuel system and maybe a fmic there. No such luck.

We discussed the date with Aron for a while today. He says they would like a date later in the year but the track is booked and those that have dates keep them from year to year. Basically what they have is what they can get right now. He says there is a group that has a June weekend that may not be renewing that date for next year and he will try like hell to get that date. If they do I think they'd see a HUGE upturn in attendance.

I would love it if they could move the date up somehow. This year would have been the first year in as long as I can remember that I would have been able to get the car down there without driving through five feet of snow. Even in May we get some freak snow storms, but it's better than April

Think I heard an unofficial car count of around 250. There might have been 20 trailers by my guess.
