Hey Misty ... I am considering this event. But it's awfully close to my anniversary. So, I will have to wait and see ...

When is the drop dead date for entry?

Mitch,

PM sent. Let me know if you do not receive it.

Martin says to tell you that he and I spent our anniversary at the track with you guys for the last two years...and I liked it. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/burnout.gif)

err, um, I really have issues with typing sentences exactly as how I form them in my brain.

actually get my car back together in time before then though.

changing spring rates, brake pads, rotors,control arm bushings, hubs, fan setup, driveshaft, door bars (?), etc. straight forward stuff

are you guys doing both days?

I usually only run motorsports club one day. Might do Saturday only, unless there is a reason to stick around. Its close enough I can pull in early enough in the morning and leave for home that evening and still having the weekend for other stuff.

Misty and Mitch,

I have the ORR car garaged for the winter but this caught my eye. I would be a total newbie to this but it sounds fun and educational. You think the ORR car would do OK at this? Do A4's run alright there? is there parking for a motor coach and trailer?

Andy, I've seen auto run there before. I'm sure you have a monster cooler on it, don't you?

And folks park coaches there all the time.

Misty ... what about garage spaces?

Ok,

Looked at the Tech sheet and that is not a problem and I am sitting here thinking how long it is till Big Bend in April. I haven't torn the car down for the winter yet so that is not a problem; as a matter of fact, it is sitting just like it was when we came back from the Texas Mile.

Yeah Mitch, tranny/ps cooler and AAM cover on the rear diff. Man oh man, I am sorely tempted.


Could you guys help me sort out the suspension a little? I have always thought it needed to be tuned up a little.
Koni DA's at all 4, double adjustable panhard, Strano front bar, Hotchkis springs on Goodrich KD's.

What about exhausts? Mine are really freaking loud and my ground clearance is scant.

Man oh man, tires and pads are good and they are going to be replaced before the first ORR so I might as well get some good wear on them......

I am sitting here talking myself into this. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/gr_driving3.gif)

Andy, you definately need to be there. Loud exhuast and low ground clearance aren't a problem (just don't go off (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). I will be there, working one day, driving the other.

Morgan: you need to be there too!

About the only thing that will keep me from going will be the weather. If it's raining, I'm not gonna run on slick tires.

Misty, if I can get the oil pan changed out this weekend, can I run up for sunday? And tell Martin the seat will be in.

Andy, bring the car as is and it will be fine.

that sounds like a real nice idea there Mr. CatMan. I'm interested.
It might convince me to run both days.

FFRAX garage, discount, etc

Chad, running the LT4 these days?

Yeah, I'll be there in the Vette (still sorting it out, though, and the street tires won't help).

Normal discount is 10% for 10 or more entries. Garages are $20. Let me see what I can talk Rusty and Canole into. I'll get back to you all tomorrow.

BTW, you all can camp at the track, if you want. They charge $10 at the gate Friday night and the gates are locked at 10pm, so it's affordable, available, and reasonably secure.


Guy,

You need to bring your beast out to play, baby. And maybe mine'll start this time so I can try to chase you around for a bit. I'm liking the new suspension. It's just unfortunate that I forgot how to drive. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif)

Damn, I'll be in Houston for 2hrs that Sunday. Mebbe they'll cancel my departing flight. I wonder what a cab ride to TWS would cost?

The last time I drove (er, rode) TWS, it was also December, and wet - that was a long, long time ago. The winner of my race was a 16yr old kid named Freddie Spencer ;-)

Andy, if you get a track alignment for this event, make sure to save the 'before' printout so you can get it back to where it was for ORR.
