Does anyone have plans made for these dates already? When we set these dates we were not aware of any possible date conflict but we do have 2. One with the minot club (thanks T-Bone for giving me the wrong dates) and one with the Minnesota State High school league hockey tournament i just found out. So i was wondering if the March 11-13 would works better for people? let me know

The track is completely operational and ready to go at this point

YES, Change the dates, I would really like to make it over there for the race, but with the current dates I probably wouldn't be able to make it. Pushing it up, then it might be a better chance. Either way though, it's not up to me.
LET'S RACE.

That would be awsome if you could make the change to the weekend of the 13th, the crew from up here would be there. As for the weekend of the 4th some of us are planning on going to Billings MT for there race, but let us know for sure and we will see what we can do.

Thanks Tyler

I could do the 13th.

Sparky - If I remember the previous discussion on this, Brandon had spec'd 5mm based on what rubber tire sedans typically have for ride height. I've run 5mm ride height on foam tires too, and it's fine until the grip starts to really come up, then the car starts threatening to roll if you really chuck it into a corner. Brandon seemed fine to take the suggestion to drop the height for foam sedans.

I'll run 5mm if I have to, but that little 1mm can make a difference in certain circumstances.

Back to back weekends... *ugh*. Leave the cars packed in the car.

You guys thinking of going? Google maps says 780 from here.

March 4th = Billings race.

How much pit space? Getting harder and harder to wedge into 36" of pit space...

Dont worry Bob, Brandon has a huge facility. You guy could each have your own table there.

Each of them 10 feet apart, from the looks of the pics I've seen.
