okay who is going? I'm 50/50 right now. I have a line on a trailer to borrow... I'm just trying to line up the logistics (hotel or camp, how much food to pack so I don't pay VIR out the nose, where to get an extra fuel can, etc etc)
DJ... its been a week... start thinking about the next win. :thumbup:

In for TTD per usual.
One thing to note - this event on Friday also is host to the Grassroots Motorsports Ultimate Track Car Challenge (UTCC). Definitely a fun day of racing to watch if you can come down early!
I'll be helping with UTCC on Friday and doing my TT/pace/grid thing on Saturday and Sunday.
Now:
'16 Ram 1500 | '97 BMW M3 | Some Press Loan
Then:
87 BMW 325e | 91 BMW 535i | 96 BMW 328i | 95 BMW 325i | 95 Mazda Miata | 13 Focus ST | 09 BMW 128i | 00 Pontiac Firebird | 05 Yukon Denali | 96 BMW 328iC | 11 Ford F-150 | 06 BMW M3 | 10 Range Rover SC | '03 Ford Ranger | '18 Ford F-150 | '01 BMW X5 | '98 Volvo S70 T5M
50/50. I'll be deciding the weekend of the 27th. Hopefully it is not full (maybe I can send Laura an email?). Definitely have to pick up the torque app, phone stand, and Bluetooth ob2 for this event because I'm worried about heat. Will be bringing an extra wheel or two just in case this time if I do go haha.

I will be there. Taking the cylinder head over to the machine shop today. Bent intake valve on #4 cylinder. Also gotta change out spring mounts and sway bars as changing my setup to try to get the car to work worth a damn.

Looks like it didn't matter anyway. Spare Cylinder Head has cracks, and took off the cylinder head with the broken retainer, which ended up taking out the valve and the top of my piston. *sigh*

Bringing a spare wheel/tire this time? :wink:
Looking forward to seeing you out there again!
I'm allegedly picking up my "new" wheels and tires from DJ's Racing Emporium this week so I'll be getting some grip. Maybe getting faster with it.

Bruh....
And yes a friend is taking me back to hburg. Picking up my winter wheels cause my summers are on 3/32 and will not streetable after VIR. So I'll just run the REs bald for the last events and pick up new tires for next season this winter or spring.

Looks like I'll be sleeping in my car. If any official who is sleeping in those villas(whatever they are called) there on the front straight would kindly let me charge my go-pro/phone overnight or something I'd be very thankful!

My Trailer has outlets on the outside of it. Feel free to bring an extension cord if you want to use it to your car for powerzzz.

Weather doesn't look the best this weekend so idk if an extension cord is a good idea either. I appreciate the offer will see what weather does

Disappointed that I can't make it for this weekend. Anyway, I saw that TPC has brought their 964 out of a 6 year hibernation for UTCC. Dear lawd.
Start around 1:15 for a nice Oak Tree exit and blast down the back straight.
