Again...

NOTE DATE CHANGE TO FEB 3rd

dome p 2 - the event is being held by SpeedTrialUSA. Their website has all the info you need. They normally run four groups, 2 intermediate, 1 advanced, and 1 beginner.

feel free to sign up in the advanced group.

george/sam - might even be able to help diagnose any troubles that may come up on the track like all the stuff on my bumper and along my external wastegate and frame

All I have to say is be extra careful at Speed Trials Events. When I posted that I would be driving in one of their events some years back someone gave me the same warning because of a bad experience with reckless drivers. Luckily everything went well and there were no incidents. At Buttonwillow a few weeks ago they had drivers with little experience making stupid aggressive passes and two cars came together badly wrecking both cars. Another person told me about a day at Willow Springs Big Track were there were so many incidents that track officials shut it down.

Yup, I've ran a Speedtrial Event once years back and pretty much had the same impression. Don't know why that organization tends to draw the bad seeds. Needless to say I never ran with them again. Speedventures and NCRC are always good from my experience.
