Welcome!

The event typically ends Sunday late afternoon / night depending on race classes and such, but I will inquire with the powers that be about the security on site for Sunday night.
The BPG don't really offer on-line purchasing just to keep things simple for them to operate and track. I have attached the form in this post. Print it out and send in your money and your good! Join the BPG and save some money as well!
Jim, I hate to tell ya, but the form is still missing the Member Special pricing for 3-day spectator only for $45. I take it that is what my wife will need as I will get the 3-day show/spectator.

Post #23 on this thread and the flyer on Post#26 both say "3-day Member pass $45" This option is missing on the Form on here and the form posted in the BPG link above....or do I just buy the 3-day spectator member pass at the gate??

I got a great phone call today! The editor from High Performance Pontiac called me and they want to do a article on the event!! They were on the fence for awhile about running something on the event after it happens but even they are hearing about the buzz that is in the air about the event! While it's costly to bring a photographer up from Tampa where they are from, I'm going to have a few photographers at the event shooting some really good stuff for them. So shine those TTA's up and make them look pretty because your car just might make High Performance Pontiac!!

Bill Owen to attend the TTA reunion!!!
You heard right! We have secured none other then Bill Owen to attend and speak at the TTA reunion! This is HUGE! I talked to Scott Kelly about Bill attending and Scott told me Bill can even fill in more gaps and voids about the history of the TTA's! I tried to get Bill back when I started planning the reunion and we just made it happen. Here is a short piece on Bill's experience with the TTA's....
1. His decision to put FWD Cylinder heads (3800) on RWD block so engine could fit in the TTA engine bay.
2. Stopped vibration in the car by using a torque arm bar (for lack of a better word) from rear axle housing to rear of transmission, and use a flex plate on the cross member to connect it all together.
3. Designed right side exhaust manifold (prototype will be displayed at our event).
4. Did most of the drag strip and dyno testing of virtually every TTA made.
5. His idea to use bigger fuel pump (which became reality).
6. His decision to use a cross-drilled crank, which they did.
Further information about Bill can be found here....

Show Classes at the reunion / layout
Just an FYI:
Going to keep it fairly simple for the show/display. Stock and Modified class. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. 100 point judging for these classes. They also have a over all concourse class for all the cars that attend if anyone wants in on that as well. That is a 300 point judging system.
On the show field we'll have the front rows the festival cars, then stock cars, then modified TTA's. Once you come in the gate head on over to the show area and someone will park you in the show/display area.
Also there will be the special awards below picked by the information filled out on your registration sheets. Scott Kelly will personally pick the others listed below...
Furthest TTA Driven
Furthest TTA Trailered
The Rarest TTA
Best of show all STOCK TTA
Best of show MODIFIED
Lowest Mile TTA
Highest Mile TTA
