Steve if you can make it to the class it will be well worth it. Running these carts will help with the HPDE withdrawls we'll surely get this winter.

it is at 4 pm so its not like you cant work the morning and then come out and join in the mayhem (9hp karts class is what i call from watching poeple who cant drive try and drive them) oh yeah if you have your own helmet bring it , it will save you to wear one of theres with a helmet liner and you will have a visor

Eric has the track configuration changed since last year? I didn't like the layout the last time I was there.

not sure they changed it about a year ago although its has changed a little bit over the year turn 6 is about 30 feet longer then it was when it was new and now has traction 5 has also changed to kick you out toward the inside of 6 to help with passing turn 1 is a bit different but not much turn 2 has more grip now and is also a little bit diferent. exit of 3 no longer has the yellow thing that you could crash in to if pushed from behind in the turn. a year ago the track record was 29.6 now its 28.8 even though its longer. but my best is 29.2 i need to go more im like 15 fastes now but all the guys faster then me are lighter then me and ran the last league where they go there fastest times being pushed for 20-30 laps at a time you get going very fast when i go i just lap the 5.5 work on my passing and the outside lines

Thanks Eric. That looks very similar. I think Jordan will recognize the stanchion on the outside of turn 3 at the start finish line.

Oh yea nice job on pic.

well kinda bad news therea a scca dinner that they havt to go to so we would have to start at close to 1 not 4 and since its 1 they have to fine one more person to work at that time so there askin now (this week) if the class does not happen there is always hanging out there and buying the mebership and then one more race (two total races) and wait for another time to do the 9hp class. one of my friends just got the 9 the hard way today and he weighs 240 the times are a lot easyer then they used to be

Eric,

I'm not clear with update you posted.

1- They are bumping a scheduled class we’ve had for over two weeks
2- No 9hp class at 4pm
3- No 9hp class at 1pm either
4- We can come and run the karts at 1pm but this does not count as a class and will be in the 5hp carts
5- No class this weekend at all

So they are willing to piss us off and potentially loose hundreds of dollars in fees for the class.

I think we have six people signed up at $45 per student. That is $270 just for the class. In addition, they are risking the loss from any future visits we may make.

Currently the rescheduling of this class does not sit well with me. Maybe you can work them over and get some freebies from them or better yet a waiver from the class in the first place. If we can do PIR in our road cars in the 1:30s, we don’t need this stupid class.

If I’m off base here let me know.

at this time they are trying to find another person so we can have the class at 1pm but 4 is for sure out they "have" to go to the scca dinner but there are checking on exactly what time is the dinner is but if they can find some one to work the afternoon extra we can still have the class. this was a favor from them to me so they are trying very hard to get this to work. i will post on wendesday night around 930-1000 on what they know then. then we can decide on to plan it for a different weekend
