    Are they going to be switching the direction we'll be running around lunch time so that we can get even wear on our tires?

    Uhhh...that's a good question. Shouldn't be a problem as long as we're all going in the same direction.

    I just made an agreement with the track and the trackday is a GO!!! I have to admit, I was sweating it for a minute. Anyways, if you've paid me with a check, then your check is in my account now.

    NO MORE REFUNDS UNLESS WE ARE RAINED OUT!!

    If it sprinkles, then we will still drive. If it slams us with the waterfalls of God, then we will call it quits. Just letting you guys know. Also, 95 rated helmets will be acceptable at the track. That's a note for all you cheap@sses.

    - We will open the gates at 8:00AM and in that time, you will sign various release forms, undergo a tech inspection, and then be there for a small debriefing about the days events.
    - The first car will hit the track at roughly 9:00AM with each group of 3 cars driving near 20mins for each session.
    - We will break for lunch at 1:00PM and resume driving at roughly 2:00PM. At this point, we will be driving in the opposite direction to try and balance tire wear.

    If your tires are a little low, then I recommend bringing a second set. Seriously.

    Remember, long pants and shoes. Make sure you car isn't leaking crap all over the place and double check all the necessary items. I look forward to seeing you guys out there. Thanks to everyone for your patience and support!

    A website with on-track footage.

    http://www.opentrackaction.com/track_videos.htm

    Scroll down and select:

    Talladega Grand Prix Raceway (Little Talladega)
    Mustang chasing Mustang (.wmv, 6mb)

    It's a video of my manager Howard Bennett (White Mustang) leading some new guy (Black Mustang) around the track. I believe that Howard said he'll provide some in-car instruction if anyone wants it. Later.

    Click insert hyperlink at the top of the text input box near the other formatting option (where it lets you center your text etc.)

    Sorry, but no. All slots have been filled and addressed. The track is rented and we're all set. Thanks to everyone for their interest. If you missed registration this time, keep an eye out for future events.

    This is the first time I've ever hosted an event like this. Depending on the results of this event, I may host another one in a few months. You also have to consider that the track has raised their rates as well. Time will tell, but if I do host an event, then IA will be the first to know.

    is the 25th a Sunday?
    just so you know, the owner has started enforcing quiet time on sundays.

    and i hear they are closing down for a bit, they needed to change the layout

    25th is a Saturday and quiet times will be enforced before 8:00AM and after 5:00PM. The remodeling of the track is in August I believe.

    Quiet time basically means that nobody is on the track and there aren't any obnoxious rev-ups and such. Basically just shut up and be good during those times.

    Sorry, but all have paid except for one and his check is in the mail.

    I do not know. I would have to ask my tubby b*tch with Man t*tties DP. I figure we can go down the night before so we do not have to worry about driving so early in the morning. Do you know of any places?

    Im checking out those places today. Thats why I was wondering if we could get a small group to confirm wanting to go, and maybe I could get a discount. Ill report back though my findings.

    Last time we went (me/Eiffel) we got a room. Yes, separate beds you pervs. No doubt the same this time, we'll go out and get some sleep before the track.

    Driving up that morning, doing the track, then driving home would kick your arse.

    It's not that far of a drive so I don't think it'd be too bad. Then again, I'll be working most of the event.

    You should bring out the Spec-V!!

    The Spec is in the hands of an 18-year-old now, sold it. It had Intake/header/RSB/SS and Falken Azenis 225s, was a nice autocrosser. Have you seen how fast the boosted ones are now?

    lol, yeah. There's one on www.TheVBoard.com that's undergoing a VQ35DE swap too. Nuts. Makes me miss my old Spec.

    Hey George, if you still needed that harness, then you need to let me know. Give me ring.
