August 6th Registration link in my signature.

Here's the hot lap time sheet from Yesterday.

For all August 6th race attendees to see & know, some new (Opi) & updated best laps from an impromptu PN session on the 4th ! ! All Super Stock set ups. The track did feel faster than Sunday but as always hard to say if for sure thats what happened...either way crazy low lap times were recorded

Only 10 Days to race weekend of August 5th-6th! Link for those who'd like to pre-register & get free Saturday Practice.

PN is planning to change to new track layout on August 1st Tuesday. This will also be the race layout so whoever can get out there on those few days prior to the race should be pretty come race day.

Warm up on these videos from last weekend's KO Propo Race in NorCal

First one Super Stock ...same class we're running
& 2nd one is one of Grant's Mod runs. I think he won the overall Mod so GratZ.
