Southeast muscle car challenge

[ITSAV6]

Maybe some homework is in need here.

Lasseter lives in or near Valdosta which is less than 30 miles from Adel (SGMSP) and Reynolds is some 150 miles away. That works out to be some 120 miles further.

I truely believe the reason we use the track in Reynolds is due to the very laid back family ran atmosphere there. Additionally, I know that I would not be able to run my T any other place in my current condition without a cage. And I do not plan to put one in it.

Just a few comments to add...

Mike

I know exactly where Rich lives(Pine Point Circle) since I am a few miles away myself. SGMP charges a good bit more to rent the track(I know a speed shop that priced both last year). I have raced at both and it is just as laid back. I like the fully paved pit area. And it don't hurt that I am 35 miles or so away myself!

You know... I thought you were pointing that Richard is close to Reynolds, and not necessarily to you or SGMP. My bad for misunderstanding. I believe that price is a large part of it as well.

I do understand about the paved pit and being close to it and all. They were suppose to build an 1/8 mile track right on 82 about 7 miles from I95 in Brunswick and I was thrilled even with not to be 1/4 mile. The point was that it was close.

I look forward to seeing everyone at the track...

I don't care for the extra 2 hr hike for me to get to SGMP but it's one of the top hooking, smoothest surfaces in the country with all paved parking. While I was there I noticed the Wildcat engine shop the GS--CA advertises is right next door to the track.

I have been there before. A super clean shop and Mike does nice work with a lot of pride. He built the motor in my Suncoupe for me and I have been nothing but tickled with it. If you are around again, you should stop in and check it out. Mike will gladly show you around, he is an extremely personable guy. He will probably be in Reynolds, as he usually checks out the action there.

You guys are Not going to believe this......I received a call from the Corvette Club that had the track rented for November 8th (the date we were trying to change to) and he informed me that their event has been cancelled due to the economy crisis! Now the track is available for November 8th, but WE ARE NOT CHANGING THE EVENT DATE!!!! WE ARE PLANNING ALOT OF HALLOWEEN FUN! LOTS OF TRICKS AND TREATS FOR ADULTS AND KIDS!! Silverdollar raceway is even planning a Costume Contest for $100. This could be interesting
Just a reminder.....for those of you coming to Reynolds, please bring a bag of candy, we are going to have several kids there and we want to make it fun for them too!!
See everyone there!! ~ Holly Hartline

[turbocliff]

Thank you for the link to silverdollar, but what I am looking for specifically is what is the date/times for TSM qualifying and eliminations? Anyone know?

I assume that it's going to be like the midwest challange were all qualifying and eliminations will be on sat. But I'd like to know what time qualifying starts and ends...

If qualifying is on friday, then im F#@KED.....

 

[ITSAV6]

Qualifying was sat last year. You can check the gsca web site or call them......

Cliff I know it won't be the same as in the neighborhood, but you could bring your son. Holly has made arrangements to make sure people are bringing treats and such so the kids can trick or treat. I am planning on wearing a costume :biggrin:

My wife won't let me take mine cause it's our first year in a new (well new to us) house, and she wants them to be here.

I've actually got two girls, one thats almost 3, and the other that is 7 months. The 3 year old LOVES cars, and I am sure would have a blast at the track, but the wife and the littler one would be hard to convince, although I may give it a try...lol

 

[ITSAV6]

My 5yo son is wanting to go trick or treating at the track too!
