Can't wait for an official race program. The weather is begging for some people to come out soon.

I ran alot of m3 Pro-line calibers last yr on my 4x4 SC , Did see top Pro2 SC guys running a mix of calibers and grid irons or the JC Carvers

Usually Soft or Super soft compounds, and I did not see any appreciable tire wear after 10 races.

I bet if we can get enough people to show on Sunday we can get Jim to run a official race but everybody should post on here if they're wanting to race Sunday.

All I can say is wow, how the heck have I not known about this track. Looks amazing, hopefully I will make it up there a few times this year to run my vehicles. Couple of quick questions, what are the race days? What JConcepts tires work? Are there any "big" races planned for 2012? Thanks everyone.

Thanks
