U.S. Vintage Trans Am Nationals: April 12th, 2008
#136

All of my race day logistics calculations have been based on 8-minute mains, but that was also expecting 40-50 cars. We may have to adjust on the fly. I don't think anyone would be too upset if they were 5 or 6 minute mains, if it meant that everyone got out of there before curfew.

Hey that works!! 
One more question:
Is there a max limit to racer attendance if people can pit from their cars outside?
I won't mention anything until someone checks with the track's owner to make sure he'd allow people to pit outside. Maybe you've already done that.........

No pitting outside, unless it is on my dock, and then only as a last resort,I have neighbors to be considerate to.
Electrical should not be a problem, there has only been one issue with power and that was at the Hurricane Race when someone dead shorted something in the pits and blew up some of their electronics.

Wait...whos got the TQ on Trash talking...? ME AGAIN...? THANK YOU THANK YOU.....
I am dedicated my next race just to total my TA car along with others...for example, I would like to trash NEXUS Mi3....then may be 74VWTECH's Xgay, hmmmm....if my car still in 1 piece, I will give Wallstreet some HUMBACK MOUNTING with the 6" THUNDER penetration....
I can't wait to get back to racing....are we going to have to DRAW for position on each round of the race like Scotty does @ Trackside..? I think that was one of the highlight, the fastest guy need not to be on pole position on each round, more excitment.
About run time....man, that is the tough one....7 hours race day ONLY if no gitches, impossible, Nexus is racing, it will always be gitches....

Thats because some of us have been at the Track and not changing diapers.....
This Sunday there should be a nice group of guys out to race some Trans AM...then after racing we might try a 50 lap race. On the curent layout it took Jimmy 11 and a half minutes to make 50 laps......so lets all try to get a big group out for some sweeeet trans am action.
