Course is basically finished! Just need to outline it. Mike designed a nice straight forward course ... since the Ladies School will be using it on Saturday. .75 miles long (they're always 3/4 mile long!) ... features a 6 cone slalom. Grid/Start/Finish is on Top of the Hill. Bill S, Mike K, Toby, Kurt W all helped out ... basically the CSCC under employed. (Toby had to take the day off because of the wind, fire and dirt in the air.)

Updated again. 64 entries as of Wednesday night. We can take up to 75.
Have a nice Thanksgiving everyone.
See you Friday.
George
BTW, I will make myself available in the early run groups for those needing an instructor.

I think we should make a concerted effort to group the many (Suby) Newbies in one of the groups ... with a bunch of experienced drivers available to help Instruct them at the beginning of the day. A number of them have requested Instruction, and I have stressed to them that they should avail themselves to Instruction.
Can we organize a Novice Walk even though Leonard won't be attending ?

If you can find me a UPS store open on Friday near the Speedway, I can come help out. My car will not be ready, but I need to get to UPS urgently on Friday.

The rears need to go back to Texas for some adjustments. The spring perch threads do not go low enough.

Well, with a complete one-off set, some problems are to be expected. Thankfully, this is just a quick fix back in Texas. Shame I won't have the car this weekend, but it should be up and running in a week or so.

It would be great if you could help Instruct on Friday ... we've got a bunch of Suby Newbies coming ... and they've actually requested Instruction. Would you do a Novice Walk with them?

Max - sorry to hear about the problems. Hopefully you started on the rears. They are the painful ones to get in.

Arthur ... did you get the Instruction that you were looking for? What were you driving ... I don't recall seeing a "new" Vette at the event?
The Suby/Evo gang had a great time. Their comments:

We didn't like the heavy chalk lines in Grid. To easy to track chalk into the car ...
