Speedie. Have you worked with the tracks to set a race fee yet? Will it be the same at all tracks or a few more dollars than the host track normal fee?
Snowy.

You can enter all 3 if youd like but ya better bring a PB with ya to do some marshaling.

Im not sure on the gold star. Maybe a peanut in the eye. Ya will have to come up and ask about that one.

Luckilly for me I can just crash at my dad's place 30 minutes away, but everything else I think I may want to hotel it...cept for Trackside and oshkosh which are only 20 and 70 minutes to each.

While I wont havea chance in hell of winning, or getting close to it with the 1/12th stock, I may take this series up.

Getting my 1/12th built this weekend.

Gary,
I know that there is a couple of hotels down the street from RSJ, I will try to get the names of them.
Also are you north or south of Trackside. If you are south then RSJ is not more than 60-70 minutes from where you live. RSJ is 20 minutes from my house and Trackside is only 80 minutes from my house at most.
