For the people that are close enough for a 1.5 hour drive, car or no car, do yourself a favor and just go! It is still fun to go even if you don't get to race. I have been for the last 4 or 5 years, last year I finally got the car down there to race...paid to race for 3 days...never made it to tech check. Lifted the heads again. Still had some fun and got to see some great racing. It is actually more fun if you don't have your car there, not having to worry about fixing broken sh!t. Just go have some fun. Wish I was closer.
