I'm planning on coming to the event, but I know I couldn't compete in the TAI class as the car is just too slow. However, if you guys happen to be one car short or something from being able to run this as a class, I'll take one for the team and enter so you guys can run. As long as the class entry isn't over like $50.00 anyway. I don't mind being a first round casualty if it means you guys getting to run or not.
I'll be in the Rough brown T Type, so just find me if you need me there.

Benji.. come on down.. the waters fine
the more the merrier. No cost cept the tech card.. how can you lose
Qualifying...
I am definitely coming as well...I agree with Julio, the more the better, if I am reading everything right....we will qualify on Friday (with TSM and TSO) and Saturday morning, but the mandatory fill up will be determined by the group and it will happen sometime Saturday am..... will Friday qualifying count for anything or just be test and tune and we only count what happens on Saturday? Either way the Saturday fill up will make things a lot easier for me as well...
Thanks for pulling this together Julio and I'll see you guys next week...

I guess Friday will be an honor system day. Meaning whatever you run on Friday for 1st and 2nd round is fine. Then Saturday we all fill up.. and you can elect to run or not the last qualifying round.
As with BG, if we can get at least an 8 car field, then its a non-issue. The issue would be if the racers pull together and decide whether everyone who enters runs or just the top 8. I only mention this becuase if you have 11 cars for example.. it makes a mess with by-runs and such. Where 8 is very straight forward.
At BG the racers voted to let everyone run in the class. Thats fine.. Just doing what the majority wants. This decision will be handled Sat AM.
Theoretically you dont have to run on Friday if you dont want.. make a qualifying run on Sat and be in the program. But you better be certain your tuneup is in par for the weather conditions at Reynolds.
If the forecast says rain all day Saturday.. we're running this class on Friday. I'm not hosing this like what happened at BG with the delays from the car shows and other classes.

NO don't need street tires but we do have to drive a Gas station on Sat. to put 10 gallons of gas in!!!
You can drive on slicks to get gas just put alittle more AIR in them!!!
talk to you soon JD
Typically the intent of the class is radials. But its up to the racers on gameday to make that decision.

I'm having to thrash (again) but I'm trying. Ran into a few technical difficulties with the car. Knew it needed an axle bearing, so we took it apart Friday to find it also had a bad pinion seal, Ring gear had 2 teeth gone 
Also needed ball joints, control arm bushings, tranny mount and tail shaft bushing. And found a leaky valve cover gasket. Gotta love it, but I hope to have all that stuff done tomorrow. If so, gonna try to get the Wide band o2 put on and the boost hooked to the Power Logger before I make it down.
Looking forward to hanging out, meeting some of you guys, and having a great time.

Julio,
Just so your guys know, the track GATES will be open by 10:00 am but to make passes down the track, that starts at 12:00. So you will have time to get in and set up your pit areas.
See everyone in a couple of days.
