I got a question I'm comming down to the race with mrrcguy "q" and another friend. I'm not fast enough to run super stock. I saw somewhere that two will make a class. Well I talked it over with the other guy and we were wondering if anyone would want to run a 21.5 touring or 21.5/25.5 ta class. So me and him are down to run either but in the end I guess it's up to the guys running the show

That is correct, it only takes two to make a class so you guys can run 21.5 sedan. Only issue is there will not be trophies for that class.

Unfortunately, stock and super stock will most likely run back to back.

They had a bunch of Solaris Tires there last week and they were only $25 for a pack of four.

If i dont run i will still come by to see the F1's run...that looks like a fun class.

Edited for clarity. I'll also add that we are looking into separating the sedan classes. I need to look at the entries we have in. I told Robert earlier that it was unlikely based on that fact that with racing the two classes and marshaling the following races it would require(4 races total) it would require ~another 6 races (36 minutes) in between each sedan class to allow time to make the necessary changes. This would be a total of 16 races. With our six classes this would require 11 drivers in 2 classes and 21 or more drivers in 4 other classes. My math puts that at ~106 entries minimum. If we get close to 100 entries I don't see any problem splitting the classes.

I ran both sedan classes last weekend at the Hurricane race and they just put 17.5 Spec first and had 17.5 Open as the last class. They took about 15-20 minutes between rounds which left plenty of time to make the needed changes and still be on time to marshal.

If we could get enough time between races, I'd love to run 2 sedan classes.
