Any chance of racing onroad before July? As our weather is limited in the great northwest.

Well since there is other outdoor program would be cool to have racing every weekend instead of the twice a month thing maybe have alternating rd for the events so people don't get burned out calling races??

That's not the issue... lots of stuff still needs to be done apparently before the first official race I guess.... there will be a track layer down and laps turned prior to July... you best believe that.

Track

I was just up there yesterday. The traction is great after 5 or 6 laps without sauce the tires were chirping. There is a cool layout there for now and I bring my leaf blower and clear the track.

Scale Spec
Stock Touring
Mod Touring

Those three classes should be the most popular, probably in that order.

Yup. I'd say Jake has it right. Count on the three touring classes that are bedrock in Seattle.

I'd really enjoy one strong pan class, but probably I'm just daydreaming. The first car of any kind tested on the new slab was a Mod 1/12th. 3mm high and no problems at all
