Is there an official close of registration date or is it just a limited number of spots?
It will close out about 5 days before the event but typically this club will sell out a good month before the event begins so sign up now especially if you are a novice/green student.

I might do this, I do have one question though. On the technical form there's this:

Tires in good condition (all 4 match)

All 4 match as in same brand or same style?

Just curious if I'll need to get tires.

What kind of mods are we talking about Pat? You with more than, what was i.... low 200's hp? Pat is an absolute wild man behind the wheel as well. Especially going into Oak Tree. Speaking of which, I don't know if I still have any of your data. Can you send me a couple files?

Getting the FD ready for this track weekend might be a good goal to have.

Brent,

Would the T-Rex be welcomed at this event if I choose to attend?

Hey David, I don't know what the rules are on a T Rex on track. I've legitmately never seen one on track. Best bet would be to email the event organizer and ask if there are any issues with it on track.

My guess is BIG NO because it takes open cockpit to a whole new level and currently the PCA lawyers are making miata drivers use arm ties etc....

I figured it would be a problem especially on that high quality of a track. Oh well, maybe the rx7 will be done by then but probably not.

David, just bring an FD out with the bolt on's for reliability. You have plenty of time to buy one, as well as a few back up's between now and then.

Bought a bunch of Cup car goodies.

Cup LSD, Cup brakes, Cup Aero kit, Cup EVO uprights (Cup car ride height) and some weight loss both from the car and the driver. I'll send you a couple of my Traqmate files.

Congrats on the sale Fritz, sorry to see it go, but the Cayman is an awesome track car.

DAMN!!!!

Sounds like the 993 is set to ROLL!!!!

We should have a good time together this Cayman probably has 2.10 or lower in it. The previous owner had a pro drive a 2.10 as a benchmark but I'll break through that no problem LOL
