+--- Thread: Crew needed for Summit Point 12 hour, June 3-4 (/showthread.php?tid=2205)
- .RJ - 06-02-2005
Test day went off without a single problem - got just about everything done on track (heat cycle tires/pads, suspension adjustments, pit stop practices, etc) and the car ran fantastic all day long
I'm exhausted now... 3 hrs sleep
We also need one other person on the crew to hold the fire bottle during refueling - is anyone interested? You'll need to be there saturday AM and stay until the end of the race (midnight), we cant pay you but we can feed you and we'll have a good time.

I'll be the man with the red can.
- Mike - 06-02-2005
so like are we gonna get an e-mail about the details or are we to just guess about it all?
what time do we need to be there? what do we need to bring? where are we sleeping? how do we obtain the scca membership we need? what do we need to present at the gate? who is doing what? where will we park?
- .RJ - 06-02-2005
Sorry for not keeping you filled in mikey.....
Be there friday by 4pm and saturday around 9-10 am.
Bring your hand tools, you may want to have them for changing brakes but we do have my tools and others.
Sleeping = on your own for that, i'm going home friday night.
Scca membership = get a temp one, its $25 and you can do that at registration friday afternoon or saturday morning.
Gate - you're on the crew list... just bring your ID.
No need to worry about who is doing what
You're my man for changing brake pads and tires at the 6 hour mark and whatever else I need. We'll practice more pit stops friday evening.Parking = no idea, find out when you get there, but i always parked in the paddock.
- Mike - 06-02-2005
friday 4pm? probably can't do, not enough notice to leave work early, but i'll give it a shot.
- .RJ - 06-02-2005
Just get there whenever you can
- John - 06-03-2005
I may be out there with a several people to spectate tomorrow for a few hours. Anybody else heading out?
- .RJ - 06-03-2005
C'mon by - our paddock is under the little tower on the inside of Turn 10, and our pit box is 3 or 4 spots from the pit entrance.
- damnit458 - 06-03-2005
Would I have to pay to get in if I wanted to spectate? My parents are going to be out of town this weekend so ill have a car to drive, and I have a few friends that would be interested in seeing this.

- damnit458 - 06-03-2005
ouch 25 bucks
- .RJ - 06-03-2005
Good call - I'll have it in there for the race
- Mike - 06-03-2005
chit, forgot my camera. prolly not going on much tonight, i'll have it tomorrow.
- .RJ - 06-05-2005
Fuck I'm exhausted......
You guys missed one hell of an ITA battle stage.... going into the night trading P1 with the guys you are pitted right next to... Best 12-hour yet!
- Mike - 06-05-2005
Fucking brakes.
- .RJ - 06-05-2005
Yep, fucking brakes.
Next year i'm going to find some sort of pad/rotor/fluid/ducting combonation that last the whole damn race.
- Mike - 06-05-2005
Or at the very least allow us only 1 pad change... 2 pad changes killed us, cool suit bs killed us, i think we stopped one too many times... we ought to have a debriefing so we're ready for next year.
- .RJ - 06-05-2005
Hopefully I will have more time to prep the car.....
But yeah, 1 too many pit stoppers.
- Mike - 06-05-2005
did somebody jot them all down?
